Living and deciding in a democracy

Valuing and securing the members’ productions

Although the world market defines the prices of cereals production, the Cooperative works to continuously improve the remuneration of its producers. It sets production contracts with quality criteria for the farmers on predefined surfaces. These contract crop productions contribute significantly to the agricultural incomes.
