Carbon sequestration in French agricultural soils: A spatial economic evaluation

International audience; Soil organic carbon sequestration measures entail costs to farmers with different individual characteristics and located in different areas. A cost‐effective analysis taking into account these heterogeneities is crucial for developing effective public policy aimed at increasing carbon sequestration. We undertake such an analysis focusing on three soil organic carbon sequestration measures: no‐till, extension of temporary grasslands, and hedgerows. Through an optimization model applied to France, our results show that only extension of temporary grasslands can store carbon at low cost, though their potential for carbon sequestration is also low. For an ambitious carbo…

Determinants of the reduction of herbicide use through Agricultural Environmental Schemes

EAGESTAD INRA; Several public policies have been set up at the regional, national and European levels to reduce the negative impacts of intensive agriculture. Here, we wonder what are the determinants – social, economic, etc. - of the reduction of herbicide use? We focus the determinants of farmers' adoption of agri-environmental schemes (AES). Many factors influence farmers’ adoption. First, the importance of farm incomes in total incomes have been shown to be negatively correlated to AES adoption. The same conclusion was observed with the total family time spent at work. A determinant which is important for the probability to contract is the total farm labour supply per year (family and n…
