Fromages : Où est passé notre terroir ?

 In a nation proud of its “365 cheeses”, Hugo Clément investigated the hidden side of intensive cheese production and its erosion of authenticity. In goat farms, male kids have little value; they’re slaughtered at one month and often exported. Dairy cows, increasingly confined, are sent to slaughter younger—averaging 6 years—because they no longer yield enough milk for industry demands. Historically, most cheeses were tied to specific dairy‑cow breeds; today, traditional breeds are frequently supplanted by higher‑yielding ones.
