Dear Subscribers,

Please see a self-explanatory message from Olivier Husson and Stéphane Boulakiaof CIRAD about their former colleague and friend Hubert Charpentier who passed away on 5th April. Hubert worked at CIRAD with the late Lucien Séguy for many years on Direct Seeded Mulch-Based Cropping Systems (DMC) also known as Conservation Agriculture.

May their souls rest in eternal peace. Amen!

Dear Amir,

As you know, we were shocked by the death on April 5th, 2022 of our former colleague and friend Hubert Charpentier, less than 2 years after the death of Lucien Séguy. Hubert worked at CIRAD with Lucien, in Côte d'Ivoire and Madagascar for more than 25 years and then developed direct seeding on permanent soil cover in his own farm in the central part of France since 2000.

We would like to share a few videos of Hubert and Lucien who presented their work and expertise. Although they are in French, these video can be easily translated and subtitled in English or another language by selecting "parameters" then "subtitle" in Youtube.

Hubert presented his expertise built up in tropical regions and in France, on his farm, on this long video (3h 26) :

CA management on dead and alive cover are detailed for the French experience.

Lucien was filmed in the fields in Madagascar in 2008

and in several conferences or lectures in France in 2013 and 2014

and in 2017

We hope these video will interest the CA community

Best regards
