Abstract

[paper in French] This article deals with social mechanisms which produce normative choices of organic market gardeners, treating mainly two aspects of farm working which are significant of their relationship to production seasonality: greenhouses and commercialization. It describes and tries to explain two distinct phenomena: the variation of productive norms from one farm to another, and the evolutivity in time of these norms. These two phenomena bring us to a better comprehension of commitment (and disengagement) in favor of production seasonality “respect”.
