Avant-propos

CAP'S reform leads to a deep remodelling of agricultural's support methods. "Apparent" aids, incumbent to tax payers, succeed to "invisible" aids at consumer's charge. Last five years, EEC's market supports dropped from 12,3 to 3,4 thousand millions ecu, while direct aids increasead by 18,2 thousand millions. That new legibleness of european's farmers financial supports goes with great variations of their sectorial and geographical affectation. Thus, while expenses in arable crops sector, especially cereals, are substantially growing, one observed a decrease of dairy sector's expenses. Public expenditures relative value for breeding's cattle are stable all over the period. Taking in account high level of arable land's and live-stock's owned by french farmers, CAP'S reform first years lead to a substantial increase of public expenditures in favor of french agriculture : 58 thousand millions of francs in 1991, more than 75 in 1995. That growth, substantial greater than european public outlays, leads to an increase of France's share in these outlays : 19,7 % in 1991, 24 % in 1994, and probably 25% in 1995.
