If you are looking to take over a farm or if you wish to sell your land , you've come to the right place. Discover the advantages of this fertile territory and the tools we offer to help you realize your land project .
Contrary to popular belief, Île-de-France is a predominantly agricultural region. In fact, nearly 48% of the regional territory is dedicated to agriculture and forestry. This "green belt" surrounding Paris plays a crucial economic, social, and environmental role.
Agriculture in the Île-de-France region is distinguished by its exceptional soil quality . The region benefits greatly from its loess deposits, providing deep and fertile silt , particularly on the plateaus. This rich soil, combined with cutting-edge agronomy , allows for some of the highest yields in the world, especially in cereal production .
The agricultural landscape is dominated by the vast expanses of the Plaine de France or Brie, where fields stretch as far as the eye can see. These areas are ideal for large-scale farming : soft wheat (the region's main crop), barley, rapeseed , and sugar beets thrive here. Corn, peas, and potatoes are also grown.
Agricultural activity is mainly concentrated in the departments of the outer suburbs, each with its own specific characteristics:
While cereals remain dominant, agriculture in the Île-de-France region is undergoing a major transformation. Its immediate proximity to a consumer market of 12 million inhabitants is fostering the growth of market gardening , fruit growing, and horticulture. An increasing number of farmers are turning to short supply chains and direct farm sales to add value to their produce.
Organic farming is also experiencing sustained growth in the Île-de-France region, responding to strong urban demand for healthy, locally sourced products. Finally, although livestock farming is less prevalent than in western France, some farms still have barns for raising horses or cattle, often combined with forage crops.
