Public policy reforms and consumer requirements for the environment have raised awareness among winegrowers of the need to review their farming practices. This renewal of production aims for high economic, environmental, and social performance, as well as product quality. Therefore, it often assumes changes in farming practices due to adoption of a...
Article
Le projet FARMaine questionne les effets des Politiques Publiques d'Environnement (PPE) sur les systèmes et le foncier agricoles dans les espaces de fonds de vallées, en particulier sur les systèmes d'élevage. Le bassin versant de la Maine, affluent de la Loire, en est le site d'études. S'appuyant sur des données statistiques variées, des données c...
Chapter
L’essor des technologies numériques, la démocratisation des applications informatiques et la mise en place de politiques numériques diverses ont entrainé l’agriculture dans un mouvement de connectivité croissant. Ce basculement de l’agriculture dans l’ère du numérique produit des effets chaque jour plus visibles. En effet, les services innovants, q...
Article
Malgré de multiples services rendus aux territoires et aux élevages reconnus et soutenus, les surfaces en prairie s’érodent depuis plusieurs décennies, en particulier en zone d’élevage bovin laitier de plaine. Partant du constat qu’il existe localement des situations de maintien voire d’augmentation de ces surfaces durant les 15 dernières années, c...
Conference Paper
In the current debate on agriculture-environment relations, public policy reforms and the increasing environmental demands of consumers enhanced the awareness of the importance of changing their agricultural practices in order to meet environmental requirements and improve products quality among farmers and in particular among vintners. For vintner...

Applications, bases de données, équipements connectés… : l’agriculture s’inscrit sans conteste dans le mouvement de numérisation du monde. Au-delà des enjeux technologiques majeurs, ce phénomène a, pour les agriculteurs, l’exploitation, pour la profession agricole et pour les filières agricoles et agroalimentaires, des conséquences tout à la fois é...
Article
L’Agriculture écologiquement intensive (AEI) est développée par les coopératives de l’Ouest de la France comme une démarche agroécologique. Cependant, la mobilisation des agriculteurs dans la démarche reste faible. Cet article propose une analyse des facteurs d’engagement et des actions menées pour les mobiliser dans l’AEI. Il propose une articulat...
Chapter
Le développement des technologies de l’information et de la communication (TIC) dans les secteurs de l’agriculture et de l’alimentation a permis d’améliorer la production alimentaire et son acheminement vers les consommateurs finaux. Cependant, la globalisation du commerce, l’accroissement de la concurrence et la différenciation et segmentation des...
Article
Despite a constant decline in grassland areas in the last decades at regional and national scales in France, in particular on lowland dairy cattle areas, grasslands could have been maintained locally. The aim of this paper is to study the reasons of grassland maintenance crossing animal sciences and sociology on the territory (3 case studies) and f...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Over the past four decades, advances in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have profoundly transformed patterns of production and dissemination of knowledge and also the organization of the economy. The use of ICT in agriculture sector grouping both 'old' technologies as computers and new technologies as drones, biological sensors, an...
Chapter
This paper provides insight into the spatial structure of the French food sector by investigating the forces of agglomeration and dispersion that influence the location of food industries in France in 2007. We use Spatially Weighted two Stage Least Squares estimation, suggested by Kelejian and Prucha (2007), which enables us to analyze both types o...

Article
The aim of this paper is to gain an understanding into how agricultural policies have affected structural change in the French dairy sector. A nonstationary Markov model is estimated using a Generalized Cross Entropy approach. Results show that while the price of cow's milk encourages farm growth, direct payments and quota restriction favor small f...

Cet article explore les marges de concentration géographique et d’intensification de la production laitière en France. Son originalité est de mobiliser deux modèles distincts (un modèle en économie géographique et un modèle bioéconomique) pour apporter des éléments de réflexion à cet enjeu majeur de la localisation et de l’intensification de la pr...
Article
This article explores the margins of geographic concentration and the intensification of milk production in France. Its originality is to mobilize two distinct models (a model of economic geography and a bioeconomic model) to analyze the major issue of the location and the intensification of milk production. Our results show that agglomeration effe...
Article
In this paper, we attempt to ascertain to what extent the clusters identified in the agricultural and agri-food space rely on a spatial dynamic involving real agricultural and agri-food activities in the relevant geographic area. We use explanatory spatial data analysis (ESDA) to detect the spatial structure and dynamics of agri-food activities and...
Article
Full-text available
Structural change in French dairy sector is one of the most important in agriculture with high rates of decreasing in the number of farms and increasing average farm size. This structural change is heterogeneous in space; the regions the most affected are those which are not traditional dairy producing. The regions which resist are the traditional...
Chapter
This chapter analyses the regional dynamic and spatial distribution of agricultural production in France. The analysis is based on data obtained at two spatial levels: region and département, and the data cover the period from 1990 to 2006. Different methods are applied to analyse the French production structure: maps and regional specialization ar...

Spatial dynamics of French agriculture In this paper, we analyse the dynamics of location within the French agriculture from 1990 to 2006. This analysis is applied to the main agricultural sectors at the department level. We show that spatial dynamics are mainly related to region and not to agricultural sectors. We also show that agglomeration effe...
Article
Full-text available
The French dairy sector has been undergoing significant changes both in term of scale and structure over the past several decades. There has been a general tendency toward fewer, yet larger operations, increased concentration, and consolidation of production. These changes become crucial because of the decrease of subsidies for the dairy and livest...
