Guinea Fowl from the Fields with Saffron Cream
Coq des Prés: Animal Welfare and the Environment
Since 2016, Coq des Prés has been running a program aimed at improving poultry welfare, fostering biodiversity, and reducing the ecological impact of farming. The program includes:
-
Pasture development: Planting hedges and fruit orchards to create safe outdoor spaces, allowing birds to roam freely and shield themselves from stress.
-
Poultry welfare: Naturally fearful, chickens are able to venture out and hide at the slightest sound, thus reducing their stress.
-
Farmer training: The 23 participating farmers receive training in managing high-stem orchards, including planting and sustainably maintaining the trees.
-
Reducing ecological impact: The program promotes biodiversity and diversifies agricultural production, contributing to a more balanced environment.
In total, 1400 trees have been planted, contributing to a more environmentally and animal-friendly farming system.
