Inspirational ideas: Sustainable farming in French Guiana
Growing sustainable tropical crops in an outermost region of the European Union: that’s what Julien Villard has been doing since 2016. He left his job as a civil engineer on the European mainland and became a farmer in French Guiana. He set up Villandia Farm, 3 hectares of land where he is building a sustainable and resilient farming system, with a strong focus on agroforestry. The challenges that Julien faces in growing tropical crops are quite similar to the challenges farmers in continental Europe have to deal with.
