Abstract

COST Action 734 was launched thanks to the coordinated activity of 29 EU countries. The main objective of the Action was the evaluation of impacts from climate change and variability on agriculture for various European areas. Secondary objectives were: collection and review of existing agroclimatic indices and simulation models, to assess hazard impacts on European agricultural areas; to apply climate scenarios for the next few decades; the definition of harmonised criteria to evaluate the impacts of climate change and variability on agriculture; the definition of warning systems guidelines. Based on the result, possible actions (specific recommendations, suggestions, warning systems) were elaborated and proposed to the end-users, depending on their needs.

Abstract

À partir de l’expérience acquise dans les pays de l’OCDE, le présent rapport met en évidence des formes d’intervention propices à une agriculture durable et résiliente dans l’optique du changement climatique. Les recherches montrent que des facteurs comportementaux influent sur l’efficacité des incitations, en allant dans le sens ou à l’encontre de l’action publique. Aussi faut-il prendre en compte le comportement des agriculteurs pour que les politiques soient à la fois plus efficaces pour l’environnement et plus rentables. En général, les instruments employés sont loin d’avoir les retombées environnementales escomptées, pour des raisons institutionnelles, culturelles, sociales et politiques. Les mesures incitatives, l’éducation et l’information, ainsi que la cohérence et la compatibilité avec les pratiques locales traditionnelles, entrent toutes en jeu dans les résultats enregistrés.
