The winning project: The CFB project aims to improve farm household incomes by promoting sustainable farming practices.
Bocage family fields are agro-ecological ecosystems taking into account the fundamental elements of a sustainable agricultural system: soil, water and plants. They create the conditions for an agro-sylvo-pastoral ecosystem enabling farmers to cope with the effects of climate change and land pressure of which they are the first victims and which directly endanger the food security of their families.
