Project aim:
To protect natural resources on its territory, EPAGE Sequana has set an ambitious objective with the Water and Sustainable Agriculture project in Châtillonnais: to reconcile the establishment of payments for environmental services and the development of remunerative sectors for agricultural production.

Activities of ECOZEPT:
We have supported this challenge in partnership with SOLAGRO and Cabinet Brun Cessac Avocats Associés. The keystone of our approach: consultation between private actors (farmers, marketers, processors) and the public (communities and institutions for the protection of natural resources), for a convergence of interests, the creation of an operational mechanism and the emergence of innovative governance.
To this end, we carried out a market study, a supply chain modeling, a territorial animation and accompanied the project leaders in the implementation of this supply chain (drafting of a roadmap, proposal of a business model and business plan).

FOODCoST

Food Costing and internalisation of Externalities for System Transition

Current food systems don’t reflect the true costs of food. In order to achieve sustainable food systems, the project’s objective is to develop tools, business models and policies to measure and value positive and negative external costs of food. By internalising climate, biodiversity, environmental, social and health externalities, these costs are going to be reflected in market prices and thus in the decision making of actors in food value chains. FOODCoST (Food Costing and internalisation of Externalities for System Transition) will guide business, policy makers and other actors to support the transition towards a sustainable food system. This EU-research project is coordinated by Stichting Wageningen Research (Netherlands).
