摘要: Decisions taken by farmers to manage their fodder system are influenced by the economic, social, and environmental context which they are in line with. This work performed a typology of specialised dairy farms of Ardennes (Belgium) based on these decision rules. In order to identify these rules, open-ended interviews, exploring the diverse aspects of the fodder system (professional and private life targets, rules mobilised in grassland management and allocation to the different herds, in winter and summer diet definition,...), were carried out with 15 farmers. Based on this information, three groups of farmers were identified: "standard", "environmental" and "moderately environmental" dairy breeders. The main criteria to define these groups were: (1) the fertilisation scheme, (2) the first cut initiation and the fodder quality and (3) the composition of the summer and winter diet. The next step will be to discuss the impact of these different strategies on the feed autonomy and performance and therefore on the potential resilience of these farms.
