In today’s intensive agriculture, the three major goals – productivity, environment and energy, are not compatible because fossil fuels represent a “brake” on productivity: even if agricultural techniques have evolved, the negative effects on the environment will persist. On the other hand, if agriculture becomes a source of renewable energy, productivity would continue to increase and environmental management would become an agricultural reality, while agriculture would play a significant role in creating a decarbonized economy and achieving the country’s two major goals – environment and energy. Thus, agriculture could become a priority in the sustainable development of the country.To meet these objectives, there is suggested the concept of LOME: Leguminous, Oilseeds and Methanization, which by combining energy production and storable and marketable foods contributes to the compatibility of the three major objectives of agriculture (productivity, environment and energy) and profoundly changes the system production, with a major impact on the country’s energy autonomy and the environment as well. In this system C-energy will be the main element exported and the other elements – N, P, S, K, Ca, Mg etc. will be recycled with anaerobicdigestion products.Two examples of the LOME system are presented in the article, one peculiar to the conditions of France and theother to those of Moldova. It also examines the current biomass production system for biofuels by means of the LOME system, which by definition is unprofitable as it does not use anaerobic digestion as an agricultural activity.
