It’s temperate climate and favourable rainfall creates an ideal setting for meadows and fodder crops. The nutritious feed of the cows is made of fresh fodder and cereals grown on the farm, making traceability much easier. Plus the dedication of the farmers for animal welfare fair well for the cattle. All of this lend French milk its rich and incomparable flavour, the absolute condition to make tasty cheeses. What’s more? The expertise of local farmers and cheesemakers. They ensure the milk is turned into high-quality, authentic French cheese, without harming the environment.
The French dairy sector is also participating in collective efforts to fight climate change and is working to reduce its carbon footprint. In line with the sector’s climate roadmap, stakeholders are committed to reducing the carbon footprint by 17% per litre of milk leaving the factory by 2025.
