Description
A spring crop with many advantages, lentils lengthen rotations, break the cycle of pests and diseases, and require no nitrogen, making them particularly well-suited to the current context. Although lentils are often compared with faba beans and protein peas, they have their own specific technical itinerary, which needs to be mastered to guarantee satisfactory yields. This training course will help you to grow it successfully, whether organically or conventionally, by making the right technical choices.
Program:
International and national context
Lentil physiology and phenology: fundamental principles and key aspects
Cultural management and associated decision-making rules (planting, varietal choice, crop associations, weed management)
Harvesting techniques adapted to lentils
Identification and management of the main damage observed on the crop
Specific features of lentil production in organic farming
Plot visits and practical crop analysis
Objectifs de la formation
At the end of the course, participants will be able to :
- Understand the international and national production context, as well as the major challenges facing the industry.
- Identify the strengths and weaknesses of the species
- Design and implement appropriate crop management: previous crops, planting, choice of inputs, etc.
- Implement and/or recommend key cultivation techniques for successful lentil cultivation in organic and conventional farming.
- Diagnose the main accidents observed in cultivation
- Define good harvesting practices
