Activités - InVivo Agro - Agronomy
InVivo’s agronomy arm is one of Europe’s largest agronomic databases.
800 TRIALS PER YEAR
The agronomy unit conducts more than 880 trials a year in seeds, fertilisers and plant protection. The objective is to establish the best protocols in order to boost profitability, production quality and environmental respect.
With more than 30 years’ experience, this network has developed a unique centre for pooling data, experiments and expertise. Six experimentation pools bring together more than 230 agronomists from cooperatives.
EAMA (EUROPEAN AGRICULTURE MARKETING ALLIANCE)
The EAMA, created on InVivo's initiative, brings together the leading distributions organisations of several Northern-European countries. Its objective is to jointly take up economic, environmental and agronomic challenges. This work brings together technical skills for exchanges about issues adopted at agronomic (resistance to herbicides and fungicides) and environmental (water management, biodiversity) levels. Agronomy knows no borders. In a market that has become European, suppliers are harmonising their product portfolios and sales policies. the success of EAMA and the place that InVivo Agro network of cooperatives occupies in it will be a determining factor in its commercial performance in the coming years.
CAMPAIGN GROUP’HD
To address the growing problem of weed resistance, InVivo's Agricultural Supplies network has launched the Group’HD campaign on sustainable weed-killers with 43 cooperatives and three partner suppliers. For the operation, 340 trial sites mapped out the resistance of grasses in cereals and analysed risk factors.
