FRANCE : Les nouveaux visages de l’AGRICULTURE

FRANCE : Les nouveaux visages de l’AGRICULTURE | CIHEAM Press Review | Scoop.it
Les agriculteurs sont aujourd’hui moins nombreux et plus âgés qu’en 2010. D’ici à 2026, pas moins de 50% des exploitations vont voir leur chef d’exploitation passer la main. Pour éviter un phénomène de concentration et d’agrandissement des exploitations, il faut redonner de l’attractivité au métier et cibler un public nouveau. Mais la question du renouvellement des générations d’agriculteurs ne peut se réduire à celle du déclin démographique. Elle induit nécessairement une réflexion plus prospective sur l’agriculture et nécessite d’anticiper ses évolutions. Les pouvoirs publics disposent de leviers importants  pour orienter les choix d‘installation et accompagner celles et ceux qui souhaitent développer un projet agricole plus vertueux et plus durable et saisir ainsi l’opportunité offerte par le renouvellement générationnel d’accélérer la transition écologique.

A tight supply of stock and strong international demand have caused wheat prices in the international market to rise to their highest since 2012. 
To add to the pressure, Russia, one of Egypt's most important suppliers, has imposed taxes on wheat exports.
