Les pesticides font aujourd’hui l’objet d’enjeux environnementaux considérables. Dès 1999, le ministère chargé de l’Écologie a mis en place le programme de recherche « Évaluation et réduction des risques liés à l’utilisation des pesticides ». Dans ce cadre, 57 projets de recherche ont été lancés afin d’accroître la connaissance des risques et d’aider les acteurs du domaine à mettre en œuvre des actions pour les réduire.Cet ouvrage présente les avancées majeures de ce programme à travers quatre thématiques principales : transferts de pesticides et réduction de la contamination de l'environnement ; effets des pesticides et réduction des impacts sur les organismes et les écosystèmes ; pratiques agronomiques innovantes pour réduire l’utilisation des pesticides ; accompagnement des acteurs pour réduire les risques liés aux pesticides.Les décideurs, porteurs de politiques publiques, professionnels du monde agricole ou encore gestionnaires de l’environnement y trouveront des éléments pour estimer les risques liés à l’utilisation de ces produits et agir en faveur de pratiques agricoles plus économes en pesticides. Les enseignants mais aussi les étudiants accéderont à une synthèse des connaissances, étoffée de nombreuses références bibliographiques. Enfin, l’ouvrage identifie certaines lacunes scientifiques de la problématique et ouvre la réflexion sur de futures pistes de recherche.

L’eau est un élément essentiel à la croissance économique, à la santé humaine, à l’environnement. La gestion rationnelle des ressources en eau représente pourtant aujourd’hui un défi majeur pour les gouvernements du monde entier. Les problèmes sont nombreux et complexes : des milliards d’individus n’ont toujours pas d’accès à l’eau potable ni à un assainissement adéquat ; la concurrence s’accroît entre les différents usagers et usages de l’eau ; des investissements importants sont nécessaires au maintien et à l’amélioration des infrastructures de l’eau, aussi bien dans les pays membres de l’OCDE que dans les non-membres. Cette série d’ouvrages de l’OCDE propose des analyses et des orientations sur les aspects de la gestion des ressources en eau qui touchent à l’économie, à la finance et à la gouvernance. Ces aspects sont généralement au cœur du problème. Ce n’est qu’en les prenant en compte qu’une solution au problème crucial de l’eau pourra être trouvée.

Water pollution control has been a top environmental policy priority of the world's most developed countries for decades, and the focus of significant regulation and public and private spending. Yet, significant water quality problems remain, and trends for some pollutants are in the wrong direction. This book addresses the economics of water pollution control and water pollution control policy in agriculture, with an aim towards providing students, environmental policy analysts, and other environmental professionals with economic concepts and tools essential to understanding the problem and crafting solutions that can be effective and efficient. The book will also examine existing policies and proposed reforms in the developed world. Although this book addresses and has a general applicability to major water pollutants from agriculture (e.g., pesticides, pharmaceuticals, sediments, nutrients), it will focus on the sediment and nutrient pollution problem. The economic and scientific foundations for pollution management are best developed for these pollutants, and they are currently the top priorities of policy makers. Accordingly, the authors provide both highly salient and informative cases for developing concepts and methods of general applicability, with high profile examples such as the Chesapeake Bay, Lake Erie, and the Gulf of Mexico Dead Zone in the US; the Baltic Sea in Northern Europe; and Lake Taupo in New Zealand.
