In the late 20th century, new patterns arose in the consumption of energy and materials in agriculture related to sustainable intensification observed in certain rural areas. This article discusses how these changes manifested themselves in the rain-fed agricultural olive-growing region of Estepa, in southern Spain. Considering farm inputs and outputs, it analyses energy and economic balances at different levels of intensification applying a methodology that combines process analysis, Energy Return on Energy Invested (EROI) and Activity-Based Costing (ABC). The results show that the farms following sustainable intensification models increased production from 36.8% to 64.4% and improved revenues per unit of energy invested from 40.0% to 60.0% while maintaining energy consumption. The models of sustainable intensification were related to the extension of integrated farming and have been led by a network of actors.

Traditional agricultural systems and their spatial context constitute socio-ecological landscapes for their long co-evolutionary history. However, these systems not only generate positive but also negative agri-environmental externalities, such as soil erosion, diffuse pollution and potential wild biodiversity degradation. In this paper, we present a methodological approach for developing and testing indicators to estimate the effects of these externalities, especially designed to be used to help guide land-use policy changes. Our results show that the indicators proposed can recognize the different environmental situations posed by the three selected study areas, in terms of potential erosion and diffuse pollution, as well as in the actual agri-environmental externalities assessment. As expected, they also respond to the changes in land use and management introduced by two scenarios, ecological and productive. Although the erosion and diffuse pollution indicators showed a linear response, the diversity indicator showed a non-linear response, which highlights the importance of the spatial structure of landscape in agri-environmental assessment. In fact, several ecological processes can be affected by landscape spatial structure, potentially giving unexpected results both in terms of indicators and of real impact of agri-environmental externalities. Therefore, some landscape structure assessment should accompany that of externalities when considering land-use policy objectives.

The article attempts to provide a theoretical discussion on territorial governance by presenting both the neo-institutionalist position and the De Sousa Santos’ alternative models, with a view of highlighting the dimensions that can be relevant to understanding the territorial dynamics of Local Agro-food Systems (LAFS). The paper aims to build up a system of indicators, structured in four dimensions, concerning the territorial governance of LAFS: (i) multi-level coordination; (ii) democratic participation and accountability; (iii) cooperation among producers and other stakeholders and (iv) relationships with the environment. We verify, as a hypothesis, that the typology of markets to which the identity-based products are directed plays a decisive role in the way that processes of territorial governance of LAFS are constructed. The results of an empirical research, developed in four LAFS in Mexico, are presented: prickly pear cactus in Morelos, blackberry in Michoacán, cuitlacoche (corn smut) in Tlaxcala and coffee in Veracruz. Two types of territorial governance of LAFS may be distinguished: those that can be strengthened by the geographical and organisational proximity of the markets and the action of local stakeholders and governments—prickly pear cactus and cuitlacoche—versus those which are devoted to export and are conducted by large companies in which marketing networks involve certification mechanisms and a large number of institutions—coffee and blackberry.

Au cours de ces dernières années, les systèmes agroalimentaires ont connu au niveau international d’importants changements du fait de la globalisation croissante des marchés. L’élargissement de l’espace économique des grandes entreprises alimentaires et de distribution a été influencé non seulement par les accords internationaux en matière de réduction des barrières douanières et non douanières, mais aussi par un changement de paradigme technologique des activités de logistique et de distribu...
