- Abstract: Recently, the European Union (EU) proposed a reform project for the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). One of the proposed reforms consists of imposing a set aside proportion of 7% of arable land for biodiversity support purposes. A conference on this proposal was held in Gembloux, Belgium, on 9th November 2011. Such a set aside system already exists in neighboring countries. The French and Swiss systems were presented at the conference in order to highlight their advantages and limitations. Scientific arguments underlying such policies were also presented. It was shown that the creation of semi-natural elements within the agricultural matrix is an efficient way to promote biodiversity. Both the quantity and the quality of these elements need to be considered. In addition, biodiversity is likely to provide services to agriculture, notably crop pollination and pest control. Currently, uncertainties remain regarding areas that are eligible to be designated as reaching the 7% threshold. However, based on the most probable scenarios, the current likely eligible areas cover only 4.3% of arable land in Wallonia. Less than 20% of Walloon farms already reach the 7% threshold proposed by the EU. If the European project is approved, it will therefore be of great importance to have some form of societal recognition afforded to farmers for their efforts. In order to optimize the positive effects of the policy on biodiversity, it is also imperative to ensure that a high level of biological quality is reached in the areas dedicated to biodiversity and to monitor this quality using clearly defined objectives. Economical, societal and environmental issues all need to be considered when applying this policy in order to improve agricultural sustainability and to stop the decline in biodiversity in agricultural landscapes.

- Abstract: Récemment, l'Union européenne a déposé un projet de réforme de la Politique Agricole Commune (PAC). Parmi les projets de réformes, figure celle de réserver 7 % de l'espace occupé par les cultures sous labours à des surfaces d'intérêt écologique. C'est dans ce contexte qu'une conférence-débat s'est tenue à Gembloux le 9 novembre 2011. Des systèmes similaires sont déjà d'application dans plusieurs pays voisins, avec des modalités spécifiques à chacun. À ce titre, les systèmes suisses et français ont été présentés en vue d'en exposer les avantages et les limites. Ensuite, les arguments scientifiques en faveur d'une telle mesure ont été présentés. Il apparait clairement que la création d'éléments semi-naturels dans l'espace agricole est de nature à y promouvoir la biodiversité, tant leur quantité que leur qualité devant être considérées. Cette biodiversité est par ailleurs susceptible de rendre des services à l'agriculture elle-même, notamment en termes de pollinisation des cultures et de contrôle des ravageurs. À l'heure actuelle, il subsiste une incertitude sur les surfaces qui seront éligibles pour atteindre ces 7 %. Cependant, sur base des divers scénarios envisageables, la part de la superficie agricole utile exerçant une influence a priori favorable sur la biodiversité en Wallonie atteindrait 4,3 % en moyenne et seule une minorité des exploitations (moins de 20 %) atteignent le seuil des 7 % proposé par l'Europe. Si le projet européen est adopté, il sera donc important de considérer l'effort du secteur agricole pour le mettre en oeuvre au travers d'une reconnaissance sociétale. Afin d'en optimiser l'impact pour la biodiversité, il faudra veiller à la qualité du réseau de surfaces d'intérêt écologique et réaliser un suivi effectif par rapport à des objectifs clairement fixés. La réussite passe par la mise en oeuvre de mesures pertinentes, tant sur le plan économique qu'environnemental et social, afin que l'agriculture en ressorte plus durable et que l'érosion de la biodiversité soit stoppée.
