Chambre d'agriculture de la Vienne

What Chambre d'agriculture de la Vienne does

The Chambre d'agriculture de la Vienne is a public administrative institution (établissement public à caractère administratif) operating under French law as the departmental agricultural chamber for the Vienne department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France. Headquartered at Agropole in Mignaloux-Beauvoir with three regional agencies in Mirebeau, Vivonne, and Montmorillon, the Chamber employs roughly 76-80 staff (advisors, technicians, experts, and support functions) and serves the local agricultural community across crop production (grandes cultures, fodder, market gardening, viticulture), livestock (bovine, ovine, caprine), and environmental initiatives. Its service portfolio spans technical and regulatory advising, PAC (Common Agricultural Policy) declaration support across multiple modular offerings (SECURI-PAC, PAC-Enregistrement, PAC-Azote, PAC-Collectif), installation and transmission advisory (DNJA grants of EUR 4,300-58,800, Point Accueil Installation, Répertoire Départ-Installation), training certified under Qualiopi (Certiphyto, fiscal transmission, technical courses), the MesParcelles digital farm management platform, producer market organization at 34 locations, and the Agrilocal86 public procurement platform.

The Chamber generates revenue through a mix of training fees (e.g., EUR 262/day per trainee), MesParcelles subscriptions, individual consulting services for PAC declarations and installation dossiers, and funding intermediation tied to EU (FEADER, 60%) and Region Nouvelle-Aquitaine (40%) co-financing for installation grants. Additional revenue flows through VIVEA-funded training and certification programs authorized by DRAAF (2024-2029). Distribution combines direct in-person advising at four physical offices, telephone and email support, digital self-serve via MesParcelles, group training sessions, and 34 community producer markets across the department. The go-to-market motion is hybrid: sales-led individual advising complemented by community-led collective action (group PAC sessions, parrainage sponsorship coordinated with France Travail). Customers are primarily Vienne farmers and agricultural operators (SMBs and individual operators), supplemented by new/young farmers in installation, outgoing farmers planning transmission, and local authorities requiring agricultural diagnostics and urban planning advice.

The organization operates within the national Chambres d'agriculture France network, which provides shared IT infrastructure, standardized training resources, and national communication frameworks. Leadership comprises President Philippe TABARIN and interim Director Aurélie MUTEL, with named advisors across installation, urban planning, agroecology, and PAC compliance functions. The Chamber is publicly funded through a combination of membership fees, service revenues, and public subsidies, and does not have traditional equity ownership or stock listing.
