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

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

Hybrid format:

  • Theory in the classroom: Technical inputs on crop management, discussions and debates.

  • Field practice: Plot visits, observation of development stages, crop analysis in real-life conditions.

Active methods: Presentations, case studies, questions and answers, sharing of experiences between participants and trainer.

Evaluation: Quizzes, oral exchanges, individual satisfaction surveys, self-assessment.

Theoretical support: Lectures, visual presentations, written material given to participants.

Field observation: Plot visits and observation under real conditions to link theory and practice.

Practical exchanges: Feedback from experience, discussions on concrete cases encountered in the field.

Technical tools: Presentation of useful references and documents for monitoring technical developments in cultivation.

Quizzes, oral exchanges, individual satisfaction surveys, self-assessment.
