“…The study of farm diversity relies on the combination of different production factors: land, capital, and labour. In a recent study, Hervieu and Purseigle (2009) proposed the analysis of French farm diversity promoting labour (family or a paid labour force) as an input variable for their typology. Their approach provides the advantage of estimating the social changes in agriculture.…”

In this paper, we provide a spatial analysis of agriculture in three mid‐sized French cities, with a particular focus on professional farms. The existence of important agricultural spaces inside the cities is confirmed. We reveal the persistence of a field‐based, market‐oriented agriculture in French mid‐sized cities, often ignored in studies on urban agriculture, and usually made invisible. Our results highlight the farms' diversity, as well as a diversity of farmers' viewpoints on the relations between urban and agricultural places. We emphasise the importance of three main determinants in the observed dynamics: the cities' geographies; the impact on farmers of land speculation and urbanisation; and the implementation of resistance and adaptation processes by some farmers. These results are discussed in relation to the literature on urban and peri‐urban agriculture.

“…This valorization is powered by speculative gains on financialization mechanisms for agricultural activities. Thus, the expansion of cultivated area on 'frontiers areas' is part of a larger strategy of globalization of agriculture, which includes, among other characteristics, the foreign ownership of lands (Hervieu and Purseigle 2009). …”

The recent global rush for farmland in Latin America has produced a dramatic increase in the level of foreign investment in land in Brazil. The current trend accentuates the ongoing process of foreignization of agriculture associated with the production of grains, sugar, ethanol and other commodities, increasing land prices. In response, the Brazilian government reestablished a legal mechanism for 'controlling' land-based foreign investment which has proven neither efficient nor effective in solving land concentration. This paper examines this issue by analyzing the causes of the increase in investment as well as the consequences of this process with respect to land prices, critically situating land-based investments and the government's policy response in a broader discussion of the demands of agrarian social movements.

“…La qualiication des agricultures familiales et paysannes continue d'animer les débats scientiiques et politiques. Nous n'en donnons pas de déinition igée, mais soulignons que, dans leurs conigurations sociales et techniques et dans leur rapport au territoire, elles se distinguent des « agricultures de irme » (Hervieu, Purseigle, 2009) ainsi que des formes familiales sociétaires. les institutions internationales, les scientiiques et les politiques, en témoigne ne serait-ce que l'année internationale de l'agriculture familiale.…”
