    Working group B.2 Mountain and hill areas Chairman: H. POPP Federal Department of Agriculture, Bern, Switzerland Rapporteur: J. VALARCHE Misericorde University, Fribourg, Switzerland 1. Problems of the dairy economy in a disadvantaged area: Prosperity and crisis of agriculture in the Jura Mountains: P. Perrier-Cornet (INRA, Dijon, France) (Original in French) Agriculture in the Jura should adapt in order to keep its prosperity. The local Gruyere cheese production shows a steady development. At the same time, this production becomes localised in comparison to the situation at the end of the 19th century. The number of producers is declining. Growth was hampered by industrial competition (Emmenthal cheese), obliging the Jura producers to fortify themselves by aiming at quality rather than quantity. The State came to their help by laying down rules that guaranteed them monopoly. In areas where cheese production was abandoned, producers turned to mixed fanning (meat and cereals). However, the production structure of 'comte' cheese re- mains the same. The cooperative cheese dairies sell to local ripeners who con- centrate on the making of small cheeses — as the production is heterogeneous — and selling them through traditional channels. The production technique has also remained unchanged: no silage, dairy breed of exclusive regional origin, milking at fixed hours, delivery at the cheese dairy twice a day. Discussion: The discussion revolved round the following aspects: 1. The importance of the natural conditions in mountain areas. The physical conditions of the Jura have led farmers to valorize the milk into quality cheese, by means of a strict organisation. -The success of this production provoked its extension into the plains, but the organ- isation was less accepted there, and the produce suffered from compe- tition by low quality cheese, produced at lower cost in Brittany.

  • Loire Valley
    PREVIEWCOPY Introduction Previewing this guidebook? If you are previewing this guidebook in advance of purchase, please check out our enhanced preview, which will give you a deeper look at this guidebook. Wine guides for the ultra curious, Approach Guides take an in-depth look at a wine region’s grapes, appellations and vintages to help you discover wines that meet your preferences. The Loire Valley — featuring a compelling line-up of distinctive grape varieties, high quality winemaking and large production volumes — is home to some of France’s most impressive wines. Nevertheless, it remains largely overlooked by the international wine drinking public. This makes the region a treasure trove of exceptional values, just waiting to be discovered. What’s in this guidebook • Grape varieties. We describe the Loire’s primary red and white grape varieties and where they reach their highest expressions. • Vintage ratings. We offer a straightforward vintage ratings table, which affords high-level insight into the best and most challenging years for wine production. • A Loire Valley wine label. We explain what to look for on a Loire Valley wine label and what it tells you about what’s in the bottle. • Map and appellation profiles. Leveraging our map of the region, we provide detailed pro- files of appellations from all five of the Loire’s sub-regions (running from west to east): Pays Nantais, Anjou, Saumur, Touraine and Central Vineyards. For each appellation, we describe the prevailing terroir, the types of wine produced and what makes them distinctive. • A distinctive approach. This guidebook’s approach is unique: rather than tell you what specific bottle of wine to order by providing individual bottle reviews, it gives the information you need to make informed wine choices on any list.
