They know how to constantly deal with the ups and downs of Mother Nature and avoid possible problems.<br \/>&#8220;In organic farming, prevention is always key,&#8221; says DesGroseilliers. \u201cWe are used to working with nature, even if it is becoming less stable with climate change.\u201d<br \/>PurD\u00e9lys has therefore done very well this year, especially by wisely managing its water reserves to irrigate its key crops during this hot, dry summer.<\/p><p>Organic land itself also has a better capacity to adapt. &#8220;Since we grow organically, we have to constantly pay close attention to the health, structure and composition of our soils,&#8221; says DesGroseilliers. \u201cThe soils of our land, which are very rich in organic matter thanks to cultivation cycles that span several years for each field, are thus more resilient to sudden excess rainfall or, on the contrary, to episodes of drought.\u201c<br \/>PurD\u00e9lys&#8217; philosophy is therefore to remain in balance and harmony with nature, no matter how changeable it may be. &#8220;We adapt, we respect it and, through our actions, we try to preserve this precious resource.&#8221;<\/p><p>And this way of doing things is a win-win at all levels. As proof, the company can once again offer consumers generous, healthy and nutrient-packed vegetables, to their delight!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A very rainy spring, an exceptionally dry summer\u2026 The year 2025 was marked by rare weather extremes that are expected to become increasingly common due to climate change, which is disrupting weather systems.
