The Endowment Fund

La mission du Fonds de Dotation est de soutenir l'agriculture durable

The Roullier Endowment Fund encourages sustainable agriculture by supporting research programmes, providing training assistance for young people and working in partnership with the world of agriculture.

Our missions


Created in 2016 on the initiative of Daniel Roullier, the Roullier Endowment Fund has a public interest mission to study, promote and foster sustainable agriculture in France and internationally.
To ensure food security for the world's population in 2050 while preserving natural resources for future generations, agriculture will have to undergo a profound transition in its production systems. Its educational, scientific and solidarity-based mission helps to revive the tangible link between farmers and society, enabling us to face the changes of tomorrow together.
By incorporating the UN Sustainable Development Goals related to agriculture into the selection of each of its research projects and the events it organises, the Roullier Endowment Fund contributes to the transition to sustainable agricultural systems.

The Mineralium

The Roullier Endowment Fund houses, within its building in Saint-Malo, The Mineralium, an exhibition dedicated to minerals and their roles in nutrition. This educational space also serves as a meeting place and forum for discussion among stakeholders in sustainable agriculture.

Sponsorship Projects

In addition to the exhibition, the Endowment Fund supports projects promoting sustainable agriculture in France and internationally. This philanthropic commitment translates into material or skills-based support for associations working daily with farmers.

Solidarity

Solidarity, a value that is omnipresent in the agricultural world, naturally guides all our actions, in order to support all farmers on the ground in their mission: to feed the world of today and tomorrow.

Share

By fostering exchanges and meetings between stakeholders in sustainable agriculture, we will continue to encourage the emergence of new ideas. Sharing is the key value in disseminating distinctive and effective agricultural practices through the various supported programs.

Scientific integrity

The knowledge created about sustainable agriculture must be guided by the principles of honesty and scientific rigor. This implies a constant exchange of ideas with the scientific and professional community in the agricultural world.
