About Pierre-Antoine

I am an agronomist (PhD) and an independent consultant in agronomy and agrivoltaics.
I worked for 7 years as a Scientific Officer in an agritech startup, very close to the field and "product/project" needs, with a results-oriented approach: trial protocols, agronomic indicators, literature reviews, and translating science into operational decisions.

Today, I support renewable energy / agri-PV developers, engineering firms, and agricultural stakeholders on: agronomic framing, definition of control plots, soil/water/plant risks, site quality (compaction, infiltration, restoration), operation monitoring (KPIs, steering), and dossier consolidation (CDPENAF, consultation, technical credibility).

I produce concrete deliverables (notes, tables, protocols, monitoring plans, summaries) and I also provide training.
