The capacity of consideration of the multi-performance (environmental, quality of products, economic) isa key factor of competitiveness of the agricultural sector and requires assessment method multi-criteria allowing the joint evaluation of these performances. The central objective of the project Qualenvic wasto develop a methodology of multi-criteria evaluation (Contra Qualenvic) combining evaluation of theenvironmental performance and quality of products applied to two types of production: cow milk andwine. The method was applied on 30 dairy exploitations of Brittany and Cantal and on 20 vine technicalmanagement routes of the Val de Loire and Alsace. The environmental assessment was performed bythe method of life cycle analysis adapted to each sector and the evaluation of the quality driven througha set of indicators specific to each product estimated and defined with groups of scientific andprofessional experts.The implemented method Contra Qualenvic on the set of our study cases showed all its potential in thepossibility of identifying the technical practices or the exploitations presenting the best "trade-off"between environmental performance and quality of products. The method remains however to beadjusted by adapting in particular the system of evaluation and scoring which seems too severe at themoment, for example as the milk (milk and cheese) and quality of the grape.
