Abstract

[fre] Les auteurs étudient l'effet des quotas laitiers au cours de leur première campagne d'application (1984-1985) sur le comportement des livreurs de deux coopératives de l'ouest de la France, à partir d'une enquête par sondage réalisée en 1985. Ils montrent que la nouvelle politique a entraîné un net freinage de la croissance des livraisons. La restructuration du secteur de production s'amorce, essentiellement grâce aux primes nationales de cessation d'activité laitière. Les litrages ainsi libérés permettent d'effectuer des redistributions de références, malgré tout insuffisantes pour faire face aux besoins de croissance d'un grand nombre de producteurs. On observe des effets sensibles d'adaptation aux quotas, plus fréquents chez les grands livreurs et les spécialistes du lait, mais, pour l'essentiel, il s'agit d'ajustements prudents, qui ne remettent pas encore en cause leurs systèmes de production : distribution de lait aux veaux, abattage de quelques vaches, baisse des achats d'aliments. En 1985, la réorganisation du secteur est tout juste engagée. [eng] The authors study the consequences of milk quotas, during the first dairy year (1984-1985), at the farmer level, on a sample of producers delivering milk to two cooperatives based in the West of France. They show that the new policy induced a general slowdown of the deliveries. In the first year, there is an initial restructuring of the production, greatly due to the national outgoers scheme. Quota so delivered allowed new allocations however not enough therefore to satisfy needs of growth by many producers. The authors point out real attempts at adaptation, which are more frequent among big producers and dairy specialized farms, but farmers generally opt for cautions adjuste- ments, which do not alter their systems of production : distribution of milk to calves, some slaughtering of cows, reduction in feed purchases. The major restructuring of milk production has still to come.
