Journal de bord On Tuesday 12, André joined the sustainability conference organized by 2BS | Biomass Biofuel Sustainability and discussed the opportunities of using the 2BS scheme in decarbonizing Scope 3 within the framework of SBTi. The same day, Enzo was invited by Dijon Céréales and gave an overview of the oilseed market, including its low-carbon aspects. On Saturday (oui oui), Clément and André engaged with the InVivo board, explaining that carbon insetting is the best solution for cooperatives and farmers to value changes in practices and implement long-term transitions. It was quite a good week for our team. 🏉 Et gagner d’un point, c’est gagner quand même.

Decarbonizing the value chain. Step by step. Brique par brique. From seed to distribution, through green fertilizers, best agronomic practices and sustainable processing. It's probably not the easiest way to produce. But it's certainly the only way to slow down the dramatic degradation of our climate, our environment and our soils. Grafite is proud to belong to InVivo, a group that is reaffirming its commitments despite the current economic situation, and let’s even say because of it. It is now more than obvious that climate change is having a structural impact on agriculture, and more than obvious that we need to support and assist farmers in changing their practices. FertigHy is part of the solution. It's a step. Une brique. InVivo is part of this consortium which aims to produce and supply low-carbon fertilizers. Semons du Sens by InVivo is another step. Une autre brique. Which supports the implementation of agronomic practices that reduce carbon footprints, promote biodiversity and preserve water quality. Grafite is also a step. Une brique. 𝑁𝑜𝑡𝑟𝑒 brique. Cooperatives and farmers can count on our support. We'll help them “cope” with new carbon regulations, implement soil testing obligations, collect data. And we'll continue to supply our agri-food customers with low-carbon agricultural products so that they can meet their Scope 3 emissions commitments. Step by step. 𝐵𝑟𝑖𝑞𝑢𝑒 𝑝𝑎𝑟 𝑏𝑟𝑖𝑞𝑢𝑒.

Chez Grafite, nous sommes fiers de permettre aux agriculteurs de jouer un rôle clé dans la décarbonation de leur secteur en leur facilitant l’accès aux meilleurs marchés. En collaboration étroite avec les agroindustriels et les coopératives, nous assurons une transition vers des pratiques agricoles plus durables tout en maintenant la qualité et l’efficacité. 👨🌾🤝 Découvrez le témoignage complet de Clément Perez. Merci à AgrOnov pour cette mise en lumière. #BasCarbone #AgricultureDurable #InnovationAgricole #Grafite InVivo

Grafite had a field day! Literally and figuratively. With our president Jérôme Calleau, and our customer PepsiCo, we visited another farm. The farmer, Benoit Collardot, vice-president of the Dijon Céréales agricultural coop, explained how he has gradually modified his practices: introduction of new crops in the rotation, occasional tillage, cover crop, use of sewage sludge and green waste as organic fertilizers. He's also a big fan of the circular economy, and will be working with his cheese-making neighbor to reuse water. It's almost too good to be true. But a large group of us had the opportunity to observe his practices, in the field, and get confirmation that it's possible. Provided you find the right partners to support you.  Thanks to the support of cooperatives, thanks to agro-industrial players who have made strong commitments like Pepsico, and thanks to Grafite by InVivo, which connected the two worlds, low-carbon farmers can continue to advance, to test, and to obtain convincing results. Grand merci à Didier Lenoir, Alain Caekaert de Cérévia, Christophe Richardot pour leur accueil et à Jérôme Calleau, David Wilkinson, Stefan Kramis, Lluís Nache pour leur venue.

Nous sommes fournisseurs de blé - à condition qu'il soit bas carbone 🌍 . Et comme Thierry Blandinières, nous sommes convaincus qu'il faut "pousser le concept de céréales décarbonées". Au profit des agriculteurs, de leurs coopératives, et des sols.

Jérôme Calleau, président d'InVivo, était la semaine dernière sur l'exploitation de Denis RAUX en Meurthe-et-Moselle, une exploitation adhérente du Groupe CAL - Coopérative Agricole Lorraine, engagée de longue date dans notre démarche de commercialisation bas carbone. Une occasion pour notre président d'échanger sur de nombreux sujets et tout particulièrement sur celui du carbone avec les équipes de Grafite, notre filiale spécialisée dans la commercialisation des grains bas carbone. Un grand merci à Bruno Colin, vice-président de la Cal, et Franck LOSCHI, son directeur céréales pour leur accueil chaleureux. Une visite suivie et racontée par Agrodistribution, à lire dans l'article ci-dessous.

“I know that when I’m not around my father says that he is proud of me.” Denis RAUX has just become father. What motivates his change in practices is essentially his will to pass on good, healthy soil to his children. “The premium is a plus. It covers the risk.” Grafite has built its offer in close collaboration with its cooperative partners, so that farmers know that by gradually changing their practices, their efforts will pay off. Literally. “The Grafite approach is all about good farming sense (“le bon sens paysan”) and freedom of choice. We are not locked into the needs of a specific client with very precise expectations. ” With the help of Groupe CAL - Coopérative Agricole Lorraine, Denis Raux has developed new practices on his fields. He has integrated temporary grasslands into his rotation, he has gone direct seeding on some of his plots, he uses precision farming and plot modulation via be Api, thus manages his plots differently, he optimizes his use of nitrogen, he makes some tests, he seeks efficiency, with a very open mind on what is being done elsewhere … “Today, we have a little more experience on regenerative agriculture. But the older generations are hard to convince, so we must take it one step at a time.” Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Denis Raux has become even more aware of the importance of improving his fertilization practices, using his manure, and taking account of residues. And if at the end of the day, his efforts are rewarded, socially and financially, he feels he has made the right choices. So do we. Many thanks to Denis Raux (north-east France) who shared his experience with us. 🌾 Grafite is part of Soufflet Négoce by InVivo, the international grain trade entity of the InVivo group.

🏉 Drop goal! 3 points. Today, the Grafite team had the great pleasure to : 1️⃣ welcome Jérôme Calleau, chairman of InVivo, to take him into the field and show him how the company works and how it is evolving 2️⃣ visit and talk with an amazing farmer from one of our cooperative partners, the Groupe CAL - Coopérative Agricole Lorraine - we'll come back to this in another post 3️⃣ seal an agreement with a European agri-food client in connection with the Soufflet Négoce by InVivo Wheat desk. Grafite, a subsidiary of InVivo - the union of French agricultural cooperatives - reaffirms its commitment to participate in the decarbonization of supply chains from farm to fork, by supporting farmers' best practices through cooperatives, and by connecting agro-industrial players with producers of low-carbon agricultural commodities. Many thanks to the CAL group for their warm welcome and thanks to all our cooperative partners for their trust.
