Story details
The Pays de la Loire regional agriculture directorate (DRAAF) announced on 19 October that fieldwork for France’s 2026 farm-structure survey was under way. The national survey runs from 15 October 2026 to 28 February 2027; the regional directorate says about 3,500 holdings in Pays de la Loire are included. A preliminary phase involving a subsample took place in July and August.
The survey covers the 2025–26 crop campaign and asks about farm structure and legal status, labour, crops and livestock, irrigation, fertilisation, diversification and agricultural methanisation. It also collects information on the effects of climate events on production and infrastructure and on adaptation measures. DRAAF says the survey is mandatory under EU agricultural statistics rules; the announcement sets out fieldwork, rather than reporting survey results.

Measurement and privacy details
Google Analytics measurement starts only if you allow it. After consent, automatic measurement may cover scrolls, outbound link clicks, downloads, video engagement, site searches and basic form interactions; search terms may be detected from URL parameters. This site’s own code does not send form field values; email redaction in automatic measurement is best-effort, not guaranteed. Our manual page-view event uses a cleaned URL. You can change your choice later. Visits that begin with consent may also send numeric LCP, INP and CLS performance measurements after Analytics loads. A first or later grant starts this on the next page load; withdrawing consent stops these performance reports for this page. The preference cookie lasts six months; advertising measurement and personalization stay off.
