Co-design of crop-livestock integration scenarios for pesticide reduction atterritory level

Interactions between crops and livestock are one way to reduce pesticide use at the territorial level. This study focused on the co-design of scenarios integrating these interactions in the Western Plain of Montpellier. Through a participatory approach using the Co-Click'Eau tool, three scenarios were developed to explore different pesticide reduction strategies: agricultural diversification for local food supply, biodiversity conservation and maximising crop-livestock interactions. The approach mobilised a wide range of stakeholders around the issue of pesticide reduction. The results show how livestock can contribute to reducing pesticide use while addressing other issues raised by local stakeholders. This approach has highlighted possible convergences between strategies and the need for greater coordination between stakeholders
