Abstract
Agricultural land-use in France : a comparison oj two statistical procedures. — On the basis of acreage data, land-use is defined by crop-combination regions. The first method tested here, after Perpillou, is based on the standard - deviation for each crop (including permanent grassland) and the comparison between each region and the mean French distribution. The second one, after Weaver, is based on the comparison with a theoretical distribution. Both patterns must be followed by a classification, to reduce the number of categories for mapping purposes. The comparison of both procedures emphasizes the advantages the latter, and mainly of the substitution of a combination index to the alternate strip mapping.
