| Summary: | Farmers and landscapes are often associated in the discourses of public authorities and in a variety of research disciplines such as agronomy, geography and landscape architecture. However, upon close examination these different discourses raise questions. The reality of the daily lives of farmers in their farms and in their relationship with other living beings, tools, climatic phenomena, plants, watercourses, etc., is not reflected. This reality systematically disappears when defining a more theoretical discourse. Yet, farms appear as places where each day many interactions between the farmers and all kinds of beings and objects combine in singular and changing ways to create landscapes. It is from this perspective that reference is made to landscape-farms. This raises the question of how to talk about a landscape as it takes shape on these farms. Through a long survey conducted in the Basque Country hinterland, the article examines the following hypothesis: the observation and description of what takes place and of what makes the landscape in these farms are two basic conditions for understanding the power of action of landscape-farms from the perspective of the landscape and of landscape architecture as a more situated, rich, complex and “operational” form of action. The survey experimented with in testing this hypothesis provided the findings considered in the article as methodological challenges within the framework of more academic research. |
