Description (French)
ChocoSol s’est engagé à mener l’introduction et l’adoption de l’amarante dans les marchés fermiers locaux, les marchés alimentaires, les épiceries et les ateliers éducatifs. De plus, ChocoSol a passé les 8 dernières années à adapter l’amarante ancestrale aux conditions de culture locales. Nous espérons planifier un essai sur le terrain de plus grande envergure en 2024 sur la base des enseignements tirés de nos essais sur de petites parcelles à Dundas, en Ontario, en 2023.
