Context

Territorializing the Ecophyto 2030 strategy

The national Ecophyto strategy 2030 aims to reduce pesticide use by 50 % by 2030. Despite several previous plans, the results are deemed insufficient. A new strategy focuses on a territorialized approach, based on local diagnostics to address the environmental, health, agricultural, and social complexities of the territories.

In a context of tensions with certain agricultural stakeholders, the challenge is also to rebuild trust. The regional directorates for Food, Agriculture, and Forestry (DRAAF) are key partners for deploying this strategy at the territorial level.

Territorial diagnostics must be finalized in 4 pilot regions before deployment in other regions. The aim is to capitalize on best practices and co-construct territorial action plans.

Conduct diagnostics and structure regional action

Carried out in collaboration with Transitions DD, Vertigo Lab has structured a comprehensive methodology:

  • Conducting territorial diagnostics through workshops, interviews, and exchanges with stakeholders.
  • Building a toolbox (with guides, practical sheets, facilitation templates, and action sheets to facilitate implementation.)
  • Developing territorial action plans, constructed collectively and accompanied by monitoring indicators.
  • Facilitating governance with a logic of collective intelligence and capacity building for the DRAAF.
