Agriculture models at the crossroads of farming systems, food systems and territorial dynamics
Résumé
Different agriculture models can be developed to deal with sustainability issues. The objective of this paper is to present a new analytical framework allowing the identification of key agriculture models at the crossroads of farming systems, food systems and territorial (local) dynamics. The first dimension of this framework is based on the distinction between three key types of farming systems: synthetic inputs-based, biological inputs-based and biodiversity-based. They are more or less dependent on exogenous inputs and ecosystem services. The second dimension is based on the identification of how each of these three types of farming system interacts with global food systems and territorial dynamics i.e. circular economy, local food systems and integrated landscape approaches. Our framework makes it possible to specify agriculture models corresponding to a type of farming system and to the nature and level of its interactions with its socio-economic context. Finally, in considering six key agriculture models we sketch out key associated scientific issues.
