Compensation écologique et agriculture: est-ce compatible ?

Abstract: Biodiversity offsets (BO) are activities that provide measurable ecological gains that are equivalent to the ecological losses induced by development projects.?The law on biodiversity voted in August 2016 introduces a more coercive framework of BO.?Provided that 59,5% of the French territory is dedicated to agricultural activities, farmers should become major players to implement BO.?We investigate farmers? preferences for becoming BO operators through a choice experiment.?We show that the BO contracts requirements will not lead to a systematic compliance of farmers.?This allows us to suggest direction for BO contracts with regards to farmers? profile and to the type of impacts they have to offset.
