2. Landscape and agriculture
A vision of sustainable development, another way to
agriculture
" There is a visual language of agriculture resulting from
technical production process. The farmer is a
craftsman. As craftsman in medieval culture must now
be technician , merchant and artist [... ] to develop
this part of the agricultural profession , it is first
necessary to generate a creative awareness among
stakeholders and to highlight the double technical
and artistic experience of agricultural practitioners "
(JP Deffontaines - 1994).
