Study on addressing biodiversity and habitat protection through measures applied under the Common Agricultural Policy: case study report for FRANCE
2011
Desjeux, Yann
That document aims at addressing the issue of the provision of biodiversity and habitats through the agriculture in France. As such, the whole national territory (overseas regions excluded) is considered as being the scale analysis of the present case study. Nevertheless, focuses on lower levels are placed whenever relevant so as to point out some particular concerns or examples. A statement on farming systems in France, along with national biodiversity issues and objectives is first presented, followed by a screening of implemented policy instruments in order to asses their impacts and effects on biodiversity, and to identify the drivers involved. To a broader extent, biodiversity provision is then taken within a sustainability perspective by exploring the relations between the provision of biodiversity and other environmental, social and/or economic concerns. Lastly, and in the light of the previous sections, the issue of an effective preservation of biodiversity and habitats is addressed and recommendations are drafted.
