There are several questions that need to be answered when it comes to the agro-economy sector in France: what is the real demand of consumer nowadays? Is there a real growth relay? And what is the production capacity of the country? To me, it is very clear that we have to find a new engine to allow us produce in a more efficient way, which is no other than betting on bio-alternatives, and we can already do this today with algae”, Mr Balusson said.

According to him, these bio-solutions are no other than natural marine resources to be used in the primary industry.
