Novabiom, miscanthus specialist
Since 2006, Novabiom has been developing miscanthus cultivation and utilization in France and Europe. The company has 24 associates, 15 of whom are farmers. All are committed to a sustainable, meaningful project.
Our team includes technicians and agricultural engineers. Part of our activity is also dedicated to R&D. Novabiom has participated in two H2020 projects funded by the European Union: GRACE (Growing Advanced Industrial Crops on Marginal Lands for Biorefineries) and MAGIC (Marginal lands for Growing Industrial Crops). Two other projects are underway, MisTigation (Miscanthus to mitigate climate change) funded by ADEME and MiseEauVert (Ecosystem services of miscanthus to restore water quality and soil fertility) funded by ANR.
Novabiom, a company with a mission
The development of a more ecological and sustainable form of agriculture is at the heart of the Novabiom project, for both its team and its associates. In particular, this means reducing and eliminating the use of chemical inputs, promoting local projects involving local players and thus generating social ties, and seeking out projects that generate environmental services.
Novabiom: A chain logic
Finally, our team is at farmers' service to supply miscanthus seedlings, and to ensure the successful establishment of their crops and commercial projects.
Novabiom is also a supplier of miscanthus chips and processed products, for use in biofuels, animal bedding, mulching and bio-sourced materials.
