French term or phrase: souche d’arrachage
From a text on champagne growing:

Une initiative pionnière en faveur de l’énergie renouvelable et de la valorisation de la biomasse viticole. Depuis 2007, nous avons initié une voie de valorisation de la biomasse viticole : les **souches d’arrachages** sont valorisées par compostage et par voie énergétique, en partenariat avec un industriel régional et avec un bilan environnemental très positif (base annuelle : 15 ha d’arrachage, 500 tonnes de souches arrachées, réduction de notre empreinte carbone de 250 tonnes éq CO2).

So, I understand that they're composting or burning the vines they've pulled out, but is there a specific term for this in English?
