| Résumé : |
This chapter has attempted to portray the diverse interrelationships between agriculture, the environment and the economy. A particular emphasis has been placed upon describing how climate change might affect each sector and how some of these effects might spill over and cause secondary effects. A central thesis of the paper has been that such secondary effects are crucial to an understanding of the potential consequences of a changing climate and may themselves be enormous. Furthermore, because our knowledge of the current environmental damages from agricultural pollution is limited, a premium is placed on highlighting these limited implications for natural ecosystems. As always though, policy development must be approached holistically with a view to the entire functioning system if it is to be effective. |
