Case study on grassland improvement and on-farm dairy processing at Jambojule Farm, Belgium
or
Detail description
Environmental services, grassland improvement, and on-farm dairy processing at Jambojule Farm in Villers-sur-Lesse, Belgium. The farm manages 300 sheep and Jersey cattle on calcareous meadows and high-biodiversity grasslands, 86% of which are Natura 2000 sites. Bernard Convié leads trials in grassland enhancement using over-sowing and Aitchison seeding techniques to boost forage and protein self-sufficiency. Valérie Calisi processes milk into cheese and yogurt. Drought and wild boar pressure have impacted results, but the farm maintains sustainable practices and direct sales to enhance resilience.
