Résumé
The Common Agricultural Policy reforms followed in the last few decades have widened their focus from the mere products to the production context, in terms of agro-environmental functions and socio-economic relationships. This way, the multifunctionality concept has been introduced in local policies, and the agrarian landscape has acquired growing importance as a key factor in rural development. Such a political pathway has contributed to starting a debate on the most relevant actions for the landscape's active conservation. In fact, for "agrarian landscape", we mean a functional relationship linking humans and the environment through agrarian production. This work aims to explicit the long-term relations existing between agricultural activities and the landscape identity. The case study is the rural mountain area of Lunigiana (Northwest Tuscany, Italy), where the geomorphological constraints have produced strong locally defined relationships. Concerning the method, different local farming systems have been linked to the geophysical characteristics of the area. The research steps were: (1) exploration of the resources of the territory, carried out by (formal and informal) interviews with informants representing key rural development institutions; (2) farm sample selection from the farmer association database; (3) farming system analysis, carried out though semi-structured interviews with farmers in addition of a photo database capturing the main landscape elements perceivable within and from the farm. The results have been summarized in a report for each geotagged farmstead to elicit and interpret the relations with the geophysical features, as part of an interdisciplinary GIS of the Lunigiana landscape that will be used to define policies for its conservation.
