Abstract

Dans l'imaginaire collectif, la vie à la campagne est celle d'un havre de paix, c'est-à-dire un territoire où l'on peut vivre modestement et qui reste propice à la création d'une famille et à la promotion des valeurs comme l'honnêteté, le travail et l'indépendance (Pagès, 2004). Une telle description du secteur agricole peut faire croire à l'inexistence de risques psychosociaux tels que le stress. L'objet de cet article est de comprendre la nature des ressources mises en évidence par les exploitants agricoles pour faire face au stress, en mobilisant la théorie de conservation des ressources de Hobföll (1989). Afin d'apporter des éléments de réponse, une étude empirique a été menée auprès de 15 exploitants agricoles. Les résultats de la recherche montrent la place centrale des ressources dans la perception du stress professionnel des agriculteurs. Par ailleurs, l'étude permet d'analyser le caractère réel et matériel des pertes exprimées par les exploitants agricoles. Elle invite à réfléchir sur les « stratégies d'ajustement » susceptibles de faire face aux différentes tensions de rôles.
