Abstract
Admitting that the stakeholders have shared and distributed cognition about the relations between activities and water quality, the question is that of mobilization of this heterogeneous knowledge of complex territories. Therefore, it is expected from researchers to analyze and produce efficient methods of expression, acquisition, and sharing of knowledge, to allow coordinated evolutions of farmers' practices. The study of three French watersheds (Harol, Lons-le-Saunier, Vittel) with a common problem of agricultural diffuse pollution enables us to identify two main stakes, with regard to: - the management of these territories: period of time let to the actors to evolve, possibility given -or not- of getting feedbacks, and capacity of innovation related to the kind of relationships between the partners. - the research contribution: level of interdisciplinarity used and quality of the tools (mapping of local knowledge, modelling).
Key-words : catchment management – stakeholders – landscape agronomy
