Law/Patents - Agriculture | | French term or phrase: productions animales liées au sol | In application to purchase land from a SAFER, in section in which the application must describe their present operations, there are sections headed "Natures ds cultures", "Production hors sol", "Productions animales liées au sol".
So I understand that the concept is essentially "production of livestock that is dependent on grazing land (or feed produced on the farm, I suppose)", as opposed to e.g. fish and poultry. And I guess I could translate as e.g. "land/soil-dependent livestock production". But what I'm having trouble with is finding an actual term that is used in English-- can anyone offer any suggestions? |
