"We think over our actions, our methods and our alternatives of food-processing productions for the future generations."
Élisbeth Vachon, agr.
Our knowledge of wheat varieties baking performance is based on the understanding of agronomic impact on quality.
______________________________
Our agronomic field team present farmers with recommendations on related topics such as: fertility, weed management, disease and pest control, wheat yield and return on investment.
Our understanding of wheat and
its impact on baker’s production,
our know-how, is our pledge
for innovative and personalized
products.
Agriculture Raisonnée™ program enables Moulins de Soulanges to reduce its environmental footprint with more responsible production methods.
We require a pesticide free wheat production.
Extreme weather considerations can lead to derogations but only under strict supervison.
At Moulins de Soulanges, we measure our ecological footprint with a life cycle analysis of every lot of wheat produced through the following indicators: greenhouse gas emission environmental and health risks of pesticide use.
Agriculture Raisonnée™ is also R&D.
Identifying varieties with multiple test plots, seed development and multiplication to commercial harvest is a multi-year process; learning to adapt specific milling techniques for specialty flours, we have developed a strong scientific expertise with all stakeholders, carrying out food research projects. Our R & D program is our pledge for designer flours and a customized signature for our flours.
Since 2011, we have conducted economic and environmental assessments and audits of our producers comparing Agriculture Raisonnée™ production with conventional and intensive production of winter wheat and spring crops.Research results show that producers using Agriculture Raisonnée® optimize their net returns per hectare.
Our producers are also proud to contribute to the reduction of environmental impacts by a reduction and elimination of all pesticides.
