Agro-environmental risk evaluation by a spatialised multi-criteria modelling combined with the PIXAL method

چکیده
The degradation of water quality due to agricultural inputs is now a major problem in all regions where fertilizers and pesticides have been widely used for best yields. In order to improve the situation in the field, public agricultural and environmental services need to assess the agro-environmental risks at different spatial levels in order to apply the appropriate measures. We researched the assessment of these risks by studying current practices at different spatial scales. This was carried out in the Coteaux de Gascogne area of southwest France, using first, ELECTRE TRI-C multi-criteria spatial modelling combined with ArcGIS ®, on a small experimental watershed (3 km2); then AZOTOPIXAL method, which includes both remote sensing and GIS on a 1,150 km2 watershed. We identified a functional relationship between these two decision aiding methods, and then attempted to validate the results by taking measurements of nitrogen concentration in surface water. RÉSUMÉ. La dégradation de la qualité des eaux par les intrants utilisés en agriculture est devenue un problème majeur dans toutes les régions où les fertilisants et les produits phytosanitaires ont été largement utilisés pour augmenter les rendements. Afin de mettre fin à cette situation et d’appliquer des mesures adaptées au terrain, les gestionnaires des services publics de l’agriculture et de l’environnement ont besoin d’informations sur les risques agroenvironnementaux à différents niveaux de l’organisation spatiale. Nous avons mené des recherches sur l’appréciation de ces risques en effectuant une évaluation à différentes échelles spatiales en fonction des pratiques. Ainsi, nous avons mis en œuvre deux méthodes dans les coteaux de Gascogne (sud-ouest de la France). D’abord, nous avons appliqué une modélisation multicritère avec la méthode ELECTRE TRI-C combinée à un SIG ArcGIS ®, dans un petit bassin versant expérimental (3 km). Ensuite, nous avons utilisé la méthode AZOTOPIXAL combinant simultanément télédétection et SIG dans le grand bassin versant 40 RIG. Volume 23 – n° 1/2013 englobant de 1 150 km. Nous avons développé une relation fonctionnelle entre ces deux méthodes d’aide à la décision. Ensuite, nous avons tenté de valider les résultats obtenus à partir de mesures de la concentration en nitrates dans les eaux de surface.
