Autumn 2026 (November)
Living soil: diagnosis and foundations
The first workshop lays the groundwork. You will learn to understand the soil as a living ecosystem, identify its health indicators and diagnose the state of your farm before intervening.
Topics
- Soil biology: fungi, bacteria, soil fauna and their roles
- Nutrient cycles mediated by microorganisms
- How to read a soil analysis (and what it doesn't tell you)
- Visual and sensory indicators of soil health
- Practical field diagnosis: your soil has a history
- Introduction to applied regenerative principles
- Permanent cover crops (I)
- Techniques for capturing and multiplying local microorganisms
Winter 2027 (February)
Biofertility in practice
The second workshop is the most hands-on. Together we will produce the main bioinputs: inoculants, broths and activated compost. All using accessible materials reproducible on your farm.
Topics
- Microbial inoculants: production and application
- Advanced composting with biological activators
- Foliar and soil biofertilisation: when and how
- Protocols adapted to different crops and climates
- Theory and practice of biofertilisers
- Biochar, rock dust, bokashi
Spring 2027 (April)
Autonomy and plan design
The third workshop closes the cycle. You will design your own biofertility plan for the next 3 years, evaluate the first year's results and map the route to technical autonomy.
Topics
- Evaluating results: how to measure soil improvement
- Permanent cover crops (II)
- Biofertility plan, case studies
- Long-term water and organic matter management
- Cost calculation and real economic impact
- Roadmap: the next 3 years on your farm
- Theory and practice of biofertilisers (II)
- Mineral broths and natural biostimulants
*Note: the workshop content is much broader and will be adapted as far as possible to the group's specific needs.
