This chair is a major mark of recognition for the work that Gaïago and UniLaSalle have been doing for nearly 2 years, in order to write a new chapter in the history of agriculture. This holistic agronomic approach is also understood at the level of the agricultural value chain: we are delighted with this mobilization with renowned academic partners to accelerate the rise of scientifically proven solutions for the agro-ecological transition for farmers, distributors, technicians, consultants and, more broadly, for the entire sector, which has such an important role to play in the future of our food and our planet.
