Forme d'organisation et profil environnemental de l'exploitation agricole : le cas du secteur laitier / Form of organization and environmental profile of the farm : the case of the dairy sectorSiqueira, Tiago Teixeira da Silva 19 December 2017 (has links)
Cette thèse a pour objectif d’apporter une contribution à l’analyse de la relation entre formes d’organisation et performance environnementale des exploitations agricoles. Elle étudie les liens entre d’une part, la manière dont l’exploitation est organisée et gouvernée et, d’autre part, l’ensemble des pratiques qui fondent son profil environnemental. Elle offre une revue de la littérature économique relative à l’analyse de la performance environnementale des exploitations agricoles et de ses déterminants. Dans le prolongement des propositions théoriques relevant de l’économie néo-institutionnelle et de l’économie évolutionniste, elle propose un cadre analytique de la relation entre formes d’exploitation et profils environnementaux. Ce cadre est appliqué au cas des exploitations agricoles laitières autour de trois chapitres complémentaires, qui combinent à la fois une approche quantitative mobilisant des données du Recensement agricole français de 2010, et une approche qualitative basée sur des monographies d’exploitations réalisées au Brésil. Ainsi, cette thèse contribue à la littérature empirique sur la performance environnementale par son approche systémique et multicritère des exploitations laitières qui permet la construction d’un profil de pratiques agro-environnementales. Dans l’analyse des déterminants de ce profil, elle montre l’importance d’une conception de l’exploitation en tant que système complexe doté d’une structure, d’une gouvernance et d’une capacité d’adaptation propres, et évoluant en interaction avec son environnement externe. La thèse montre enfin qu’il n’existe pas un alignement strict entre formes d’organisation et performance environnementale mais que certaines formes d’exploitation sont plus aptes que d’autres à prendre en compte certaines pratiques agro-environnementales. / This thesis contributes to the analysis of the relationship between farm’s forms of organization and environmental performance. The links between the way in which farm is organized and governed and all the practices related with its environmental profile will be studied. First, the economic literature about environmental performance of farms and its determinants will be reviewed. Based on the insights of the neo-institutional and the evolutionary economics, an analytical framework of the relationship between forms of organization and environmental profiles will be proposed. This framework will then be applied to dairy farms in three complementary chapters. These chapters combine both quantitative approach using data from the French agricultural census of 2010 and a qualitative approach from semi-directive interviews carried out in Brazil. An insight to the empirical literature on environmental performance will be provided thanks to a systemic and multi-criteria approach of dairy farms thought a profile of agro-environmental practices. The analysis of the determinants also shows the importance of studying the farm as complex system with its own structure, governance and adaptability evolving in its external environment. Finally, the thesis bring out that there is no strict alignment between forms of organization and environmental performance. However, certain forms are more apt than others to take into account certain agro-environmental practices.

If we buy your vehicles, can we produce our own fuel? : An early assessment method for the market expansion of biomethane solutionsLindfors, Axel, Lärkhammar, Sofie January 2017 (has links)
Biomethane made from the anaerobic digestion of organic waste can provide several economic and environmental benefits such as: the valorisation of waste products, increased resource efficiency, increased retention of nutrients through recycling of biogas digestate (Banks, et al., 2011), reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (Börjesson, et al., 2016) as well as the reduction of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter emissions (Börjesson & Berglund, 2007).To help actors understand when and where biomethane solutions can succeed, including the qualitative and quantitative aspects of a solution, an Early Assessment Method has been developed. The categories included in the assessment are potential, feasibility, economic and environmental performance. The Early Assessment Method was developed using a multi-criteria framework and consists of 15 key areas and 24 key indicators that should be considered when assessing biomethane solutions. Each quantitative indicator can be assessed either with site-specific data or by using generic equations and average values while the qualitative indicators are given a five-grade scale to facilitate the assessment.The potential category focuses on assessing how much raw material there is in the investigated area and how much of the usable products can be produced. The final areas are: biomass potential, biomethane potential and bio-fertilizer potential. In the feasibility assessment, qualitative aspects are assessed using a five-grade scale. The key areas for feasibility include: customer demand, competing applications, strategies for renewable fuels, legislation, economic instruments and infrastructure suitability. Performance is assessed both for economic performance and environmental performance to understand how the biomethane solution would perform if implemented. Economic performance includes both an indicator for cost per unit produced and an indicator for the investment cost for each production step. The key areas included are: biogas generation cost, biogas upgrading cost and biomethane distribution cost. The environmental performance is evaluated to understand how environmental aspects would change if biomethane replaced an alternative fuel on the market in the studied region. Key areas to assess this are: climate impact, air quality and nutrient recycling. These areas highlight some important benefits of using biomethane over fossil fuels, which are the most common fuels for heavy-duty vehicles.A two-part Early Assessment Tool was also developed. The tool is included in the method, but can be used separately if the user has a basic knowledge of biomethane. It assists with information collection, through a questionnaire, and structuring and presenting data, through a spreadsheet. The design of the Early Assessment Tool favours simplicity and usability while striving to maintain relevant information. It is meant to be used both for educational and investigative purposes when providing an early assessment of biomethane solutions within a certain region. The result from the tool can aid when making decisions and help with identifying which local actors to involve and what consultancy work might be needed to realise a biomethane solution.

GESTÃO E AVALIAÇÃO DO DESEMPENHO ORGANIZACIONAL: PROPOSTA DE UMA SISTEMÁTICA PARA CADASTRO E AVALIAÇÃO DE FORNECEDORES EM ORGANIZAÇÕES MILITARES / MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT: PROPOSAL FOR REGISTRATION OF A SYSTEMATIC AND SUPPLIERS ASSESSMENT IN MILITARY ORGANIZATIONSNaimer, Simone Caberte 26 August 2016 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / In the current climate of economic environment, organizations need to direct their efforts to maximize the effectiveness of their organizational management. With military organizations is no different, they operate in a highly competitive environment with unique characteristics, which forces them to play their processes with maximum excellence, especially those factors considered most relevant to your performance. Thus, the use of tools and performance indicators, as Slack model, assist in directing the organization through perspectives that align the company's shares with their strategies, allowing thus the performance evaluation and guiding organizational management. In this context, the present study is guided by linking the deployment of the five premises of Slack model, the multi-criteria approach technique Analytic Hierarchy Process and the use of traditional Delphi method as a way to validate the indicators, thus developing a system to register and evaluation of suppliers. Therefore, research is presented as a case study with a qualitative and quantitative approach applied nature and inductive method. As a result of this integration, proposing It will be a system for registration and evaluation of suppliers in Military Organizations based on criteria, with the emphasis on support for organizational management. / Na atual conjuntura do cenário econômico, as organizações necessitam direcionar seus esforços para maximizar a eficácia de sua gestão organizacional. Com as Organizações Militares não é diferente, elas estão inseridas em um ambiente altamente competitivo e com características peculiares, o que as obriga a desempenhar seus processos com máxima excelência, principalmente naqueles fatores considerados como os mais relevantes para o seu desempenho. Assim, o uso de técnicas e indicadores de desempenho, como Modelo de Slack, auxiliam no direcionamento da organização através de perspectivas que alinham ações da empresa com suas estratégias, permitindo, dessa forma, a avaliação de desempenho e norteando a gestão organizacional. Neste contexto, o presente estudo está pautado em vincular o desdobramento das cinco premissas do Modelo de Slack, a técnica de abordagem multicritério Analytic Hierarchy Process e a utilização do método Delphi tradicional como forma de validação dos indicadores, desenvolvendo desta forma uma sistemática para cadastro e avaliação de fornecedores. Assim sendo, a pesquisa apresenta-se como um estudo de caso, com abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa, de natureza aplicada e com método indutivo. Como resultado dessa integração, foi desenvolvida uma sistemática para cadastro e avaliação de fornecedores em Organizações Militares, baseada em critérios, tendo como ênfase o apoio à gestão organizacional.

Vivre avec le feu en région méditerranéenne : une approche participative multicritère et multi-scénarios appliquée au cas du massif des Maures (Var, France) / Living with fire in the Mediterranean region. A participatory multi-criteria and multi-scenario approach applied to the Massif des Maures (Var, France).Merino, Albert 26 November 2015 (has links)
Dans cette thèse, nous présentons une évaluation multicritère de plusieurs « scénarios de vie avec le feu » en forêt méditerranéenne. Le cas d’études concerne le massif des Maures (Var ; France), un territoire fortement soumis au risque « feux de forêt » et ayant connu d’importantes transformations socio-économiques au cours des dernières décennies. Cette étude cherche également à tester et comparer la pertinence de plusieurs cadres évaluatifs comme outils d’aide à la gouvernance du risque « feux de forêt ». La thèse est composée de trois parties principales clairement distinctes d’un point de vue aussi bien thématique que méthodologique. La première partie de la thèse a pour objet l’« Economie du feu », autrement dit, l’ensemble de concepts et d’outils généralement proposés par la Science Economique pour l’analyse du risque « feux de forêt » (modèle C+NVC, « budget optimal de protection », etc.). Nous soulignons par rapport à ce premier cadre évaluatif jusqu’à trois sophismes fondamentaux qui démontrent son inadéquation par rapport à la complexité, l’incertitude, l’ambiguïté et l’incommensurabilité qui caractérisent le phénomène du feu. La thèse se focalise dans un deuxième temps sur la présentation d’une approche alternative au sein de laquelle plusieurs scénarios semi-qualitatifs sont évaluées dans une logique participative et multicritère. La deuxième partie de la thèse est ainsi consacrée à la présentation de l’approche des Scénarios Environnementaux, puis de chacune des étapes du processus prospectif mené sur le terrain avec la participation des acteurs locaux. Ce processus aboutit à quatre « avenirs du feu » dans les Maures : (i) l’AFFRONTEMENT technique ; (ii) la (RE)COLONISATION de la forêt ; (iii) la DOMESTICATION du feu ; et (iv) l’ADAPTATION collective. Enfin, dans la troisième partie de la thèse, nous présentons les Approches Participatives MultiCritère (APMC), puis nous analysons le processus d’exploration réalisé sur le terrain par les acteurs locaux eux-mêmes à travers une plateforme heuristique inspirée de deux APMC communément employées dans la gestion de systèmes socio-écologiques et la gouvernance des risques, à savoir, la Multi-Criteria Mapping (cartographie multicritère) et l’Approche INTÉGRAAL. L’analyse des résultats obtenus à travers ce processus d’exploration permettent d’établir plusieurs recommandations susceptibles d’améliorer les pratiques actuelles de gouvernance du risque et de décupler l’acceptabilité sociétale des mesures de gestion aujourd’hui en place. / This thesis aims to: (i) explore and evaluate several ways of living with fire in Mediterranean forests; (ii) appraise different evaluative frameworks for wildfire risk governance. The case study concerns the Massif des Maures (Var; France), a fire-prone territory where structural socio-economic transformations are coming about since 50 years now. The thesis consists of three main parts clearly distinguishable (thematically as well as methodologically). First part focuses on “Fire Economics”, that is, the set of theoretical concepts and methodological tools commonly applied by economists for the study of wildfire risk (C+NVC model, “most efficient program level”, etc.). We highlight up to three fundamental sophisms in such an evaluative framework. We thus underline its inadequacy for dealing with the complexity, uncertainty, ambiguity and incommensurability of wildfires phenomenon. The focus of the thesis moves then to the presentation of an alternative approach in which several semi-qualitative and integrated Scenarios are explored through an inclusive Multi-Criteria reasoning. Second part thus treats Environmental Scenarios, an approach which is first presented in a general way and whose application to our case study is then analysed in detail, from the very first interviews with local actors to the final scenarios generated with their participation. These scenarios are: (i) Technical Confrontation; (ii) Forest (re)Colonisation; (iii) Fire Domestication; and (iv) Collective Adaptation. Third part deals with Participatory Multi-Criteria Approaches (PMCA). We first present and contextualise these evaluative frameworks as an example of Value-Articulating Institution (VAI). We then apply to our case study a hybrid PMCA inspired from two approaches frequently used in social-ecological systems management and risk governance: Multi-Criteria Mapping and INTÉGRAAL Approach. The thesis concludes with several recommendations that could improve social acceptability of current fire management strategies and more generally, enhance fire risk governance practices.
