00:00At the heart of the ancient land of the Somme, where the water and the earth meet,
00:19the Ortillonnage Damien has more than 700 years ago, a natural treasured that makes the rich of the region.
00:25We are at Porte d'Amiens, in the site of Ortillonnage, in the middle of its network of 65 km.
00:32We have a pretty diverse landscape. We have a lot of teres maraîchères who will resemble more
00:39to the champs, and gardens that occupy about a hundred hectares, about half of the surface.
00:44So, these small cabanes with plows. You also have some poultry gardens, and the rest,
00:50which are destroyed, with saules and peopliers, and then some surface of marais with the étangs.
00:57We find a faune and a flore like the other marais of the Somme, more by little touches.
01:03The Ortillonnage is unique. We have a site of 160 hectares, and all this is in the middle of a city of 160 000 inhabitants.
01:11And what we have in the project, it's a livret of the user, we call it like that.
01:16And in this livret, the user will find a number of advice and reminders,
01:20and one which is important, which is not to use chemical products to the shoreline.
01:24I am convinced that the future of the Ortillonnage is in the balance of the different uses,
01:30the development of tourism, always the gardening activities, the maraîchery activity that will be released,
01:36and, I doubt it, there will be a biodiversity that will be released from the game.
