Abstract

[eng] Mountainous and less-favoured areas account for more than half the agricultural land of the Community, but only a third of potential production. Agricultural incomes are half those in other regions, because of size difference and less capacity to incorporate more production factors. Subsidies help to balance the situation, especially the compensatory allowances granted through the structural policy, but real parity is not achieved. Where possible, farmers supplement their income by non-agricultural activities. Over and above production, these farms play an important role — which now seems to be gaining recognition — in environmental protection and maintenance of the countryside. [fre] Les zones défavorisées et de montagne occupent plus de la moitié des terres agricoles de la Communauté, mais contribuent seulement au tiers du potentiel de production. Les revenus agricoles y sont inférieurs de moitié à ceux des autres régions, en raison de tailles différentes et d'une moindre capacité à incorporer des facteurs de production supplémentaires. Sans atteindre une véritable parité, les subventions tendent à redresser la situation, notamment les indemnités compensatoires allouées dans le cadre de la politique des structures. Lorsque c'est possible, les exploitants complètent leur revenu par des activités extra-agricoles. Hormis produire, ces exploitations jouent un rôle important — qui semble aujourd'hui mieux reconnu — dans la protection de l'environnement et le maintien du paysage.
