Abstract
[eng] Appraisal of the article: « Costs and advantages for the nation of various evolutions in agricultural structures » - This article presents a criticism against the article « Costs and advantages for the nation of various evolutions in agricultural structures » by Levy, Lambert and Papoz published in the « Economie Rurale » n° 86, both against the general method and against the way of calculating certain figures. . It is pointed out that the method of costs and advantages has not been used with all necessary precaution : its validity is connected with the scale and horizon considered. . A procedure better suited to inform decision centers is proposed : . — make an inventory of all the numerous connections between the phenomenon in question and different parts of the economy, . — define the field of uncertainty at the horizon in question, . — determine the decisions made for an intermediate run wich will have irreversible effects in a long run, . — considering all these factors, make up a strategy in the intermediate run. . These considerations can also be useful to other problems than those of agricultural structures and the conversion of farmers. [fre] Le présent article critique l'étude « Coûts - avantages pour la nation de différentes évolutions des structures agricoles » publiée par MM. Levy, Lambert et Papoz dans le numéro 86 d' « Economie Rurale », et ceci à la fois quant à la méthode générale et quant aux procédures de calcul de certaines grandeurs. . Il tend à montrer que la méthode coûts-avantages n'a pas été utilisée avec les précautions suffisantes : sa validité est liée à l'échelle et à l'horizon considérés. . Dans ces conditions, une démarche plus propre à éclairer les décisions est proposée : . — inventorier qualitativement et dans une perspective dynamique les multiples liaisons du phénomène étudié avec les différents aspects de l'économie, . — délimiter le domaine de l'incertain à l'horizon considéré, . — déterminer quelles sont les décisions qui, prises à moyen terme, auront des effets irréversibles à long terme, . — compte tenu de tous ces éléments, élaborer une stratégie à moyen terme. , . Ces considérations peuvent au surplus être appliquées à d'autres problèmes que ceux des structures agricoles et de la conversion des agriculteurs.
