00:00 Consumers are increasingly aware of what is happening in production, and that's a good thing.
00:06 It leads them to ask questions, which is something we encourage.
00:10 Responsible and respectful agriculture.
00:24 It is agriculture that is optimal and sustainable for future generations.
00:31 On our farm, we have free-range hen coops and organic hen coops.
00:41 We have an organic mill.
00:44 The mill allows us to feed our breeding pullets and organic hens with 100% organic feed.
00:53 In our sustainable environmental practices, we always select technologies that make it possible to be the most efficient,
01:02 as well as to have the smallest possible environmental footprint.
01:06 For example, we opt for heat exchangers that reduce the use of propane or natural gas.
01:12 And then of course we choose systems that help us manage water consumption and feed consumption in the most optimal manner.
01:23 The manure produced by the layer hens and breeding pullets will definitely be used as fertilizer for vegetables and field crops.
01:33 For egg production, for example, we face a challenge these days, mainly in terms of biosecurity with viruses and avian flu.
01:43 In addition, viruses are becoming more and more resistant, and new viruses are appearing.
01:49 We must also think about how we build and renovate our coops in order to minimize our biosecurity risks.
01:57 The whole industry must feel concerned in this case, including those who come to get the eggs and those who deliver the chicks.
02:05 Everyone needs to be aware.
02:08 In terms of field crop production, there are environmental aspects.
02:12 You can be sure that the temperature changes and other effects of climate change we are facing are not going to be the same.
02:18 Climate change we are seeing these days affects production a lot.
02:22 You have to know how to adapt and how to react.
02:25 All farmers are aware of the importance of following good practices.
02:33 It's important for us that our hens are healthy.
02:36 It's also important that the land is in good condition, not only because of our values, but also to have good production.
02:44 You have to take care of them.
