Sustainable Agriculture France is a very happening topic in France. France has already been counted among one of the top crop grower countries and exporters of the same in the entire world. But now they want to check the environmental degradations which are associated with the factory farming techniques and at the same time provide healthy food to its consumers. So, some of the groups that have come up for Sustainable Agriculture France include FARRE (which stands for Forum for Environmentally Friendly Integrated Farming), Philippe Viaux, Arvalis Institut du Vegetal and EcoCert.

The main concern of FARRE is protection of the environment from harmful chemical substances. The other objectives of Sustainable Agriculture France involve cost minimization of the farming practices through curtailment of the use of artificially produced chemical fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides.

FARRE under the Sustainable Agriculture France has a total of four hundred two members in the farm sector. The sister concerns of the same has crossed the boundaries to reach the developed countries like United Kingdom, Italy, Germany and Sweden.

Sustainable Agriculture France believe that the issues like productivity and the profitability along with environmental protection are the motivating force behind the idea of sustainable agriculture. The other issues that are also visited in this context are the human care with the animals and giving them enough space to graze. The social issue that is associated with Sustainable Agriculture France is the social side of farming and that is related to the wage and other welfare issue of the farmer and the farm workers.

The main aim of Sustainable Agriculture France is provided to the customers with food which are rich with nutritional values. The viability of the business is also a main aim of this project through the route of minimization of costs (by avoiding chemical fertilizers, etc.). Sustainable Agriculture France is especially a project that has a long run perspective.
