Another important interest: the fight against weeds. Its rapid establishment as “green manure” prevents development of weeds and limit the use of herbicides.

It plays a role in maintaining the biodiversity: Allows the soil to get well aerated through its root system. This unpacking improves microbial life of soil fauna. Growing oats surfaces also allows the bees to use the pollen produced by these plants as a nutrient.

Control :
At each stage, from production to storage, are practiced hydrometric controls. The lots that do not meet quality criteria are listed and downgraded. A sampling is carried out on each batch and analyzed by a certified laboratory. These data guarantee the accuracy of your rations. Nutritives properties :
Forage used mainly in the feeding of equines :palatable, providing cellulose digestibility and transit regulator, oats contain a large amount of beta-glucan valuable nutrients : dietary fiber, protein, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It can be grown in a mixture with a legume, which improves its protein content. It can be grown in a mixture with a legume, which improves its protein content.
