Innovation: a collective mindset at InVivo
The agricultural and agri-food sectors are more than ever on the move and the digital revolution is at work. Traceability, sustainability and digitalisation are preparing our future.
These measures enrich the group's own approaches to experimenting and deploying the solutions and technologies of tomorrow. In this way, we remain faithful to "the ability to anticipate and to innovate", which are values and principles of action inscribed in our DNA.
To assess the functional, agronomic, and economic relevance of digital and technological solutions in agriculture, InVivo draws on the expertise and network of Fermes Leader.
Over the past five years, Fermes Leader has led more than 100 projects from AgTech companies and startups to test, validate in real conditions, and support the scaling up of innovative solutions among farmers and cooperatives in the network.
Its mission: to make innovation an operational lever for transformation, serving high-performance, sustainable agriculture that is aligned with real needs in the field.
Four pillars structure its actions:
Openfield is a unique 13-hectare experimental platform where 56 cropping practices are put into practice on 15 crops and 5 rotations, covering livestock farming, methanisation, industrial crops, cereals, protein crops and oilseeds.
Our vision: results-based agriculture: Openfield is committed to building a measured, proven and innovative form of agriculture, without pitting one production method against another. 4 key themes are being explored:
Our aim is to provide practical solutions to support the strategies (supply chain, CSR, regulatory, etc.) of distributors, agri-food manufacturers, technical institutes and all our partners.

Soufflet Agriculture's Agronomy, Advice and Innovation Department (A.A.I.) was created to accelerate innovation for its farmer customers: the A.A.I. team proposes, after tests and experiments, the latest technologies and decision-making tools (OAD) for farmers.
In line with the new regulations in the agricultural sector and consumer expectations, A.A.I.'s action is in line with Soufflet Agriculture's historical vocation: to accompany the changes and transformations in agriculture by developing its technical expertise and service offers.
