Feasibility study for setting up a farm linked to an orchard preserving domestic mountain species and to a space preserving animalsDYNALP² will enable a feasibility study on the project for an orchard and for preserving traditional varieties to be carried out. This study has two constituents, land and legal and technico-economic. 1. Land study: Search for plots available according to the current regulations (POS, natural hazards, …), co-ordination amongst farmers and owners to plan exchanges of plots and building up a consistent lot of plots for the commune/private project; assessment of the type of production which can be envisaged in this context. Organisation of the land study with owners based on the conclusions of the draft will be continued. 2. The legal and technico-economic study. This part will be devoted on the one hand to studying the hypotheses of connection between the private project and the commune project from a legal and functional view point. On the other hand it will define the conditions for the invitation to tender to candidates for the agriculture part and for carrying out the technico-economic feasibility study which will follow the choice of a candidate. Aims:To take part in protecting genetic resources, to collect mountain strains, to characterise them and protect them in an orchard for the long term. To create a land reserve in a participative manner, to create economic activity thanks to the installation on the farm site, to create agricultural and tourist activity or at least two jobs; increase public awareness: Carry out promotion of activities to increase public awareness of issues linked to biodiversity and a concrete act of conserving genetic resources; create an attractive tourist product, create the support of visits and organised activities, organise events promoting the local heritage.
