It answers questions as diverse as it is varied, at all geographical levels, allowing comparisons at the finest level (canton, common) and takes into account the local specificities as well as the new challenges of agriculture, such as signs of quality, territorial farm contracts, cultivation practices, etc. It is also interested in smaller farms and the important local impact. To prepare for the future of the agricultural world: The agricultural census makes it possible to measure the impact of agricultural policies, in particular the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), on agricultural practices and the environment.It gives political leaders, national elected officials and representatives of the profession keys to preparing future agricultural laws and regulations and international negotiations. It provides elected representatives of rural communes with valuable data for spatial management and spatial planning. The 2010 agricultural census follows the 1970, 1979, 1988 and 2000 censuses. The 2020 agricultural census will soon begin.
