Mental health in juvenile offenders ; La salud mental en personas infractoras menores de edad
The study presented below is part of the permanent evaluation that we have been developing for more than a decade in collaboration with the Directorate of Justice of the Basque Government.The 5/2000 Criminal Law covers two specific measures for this problem: outpatient treatment (executing in an half-open environment) and therapeutic internment (executing in education centers). The research that we present has analyzed the psychosocial profile of minors who have been imposed one of these two measures during 2019 and 2020 in the Basque Country. Its objective is to know in depth the profile of juvenile offenders with mental health problems.In addition to observing many absences of diagnoses of boys and girls despite the nature of the measures imposed, we note differences between the general adolescent population offenders and the group studied. ; El estudio que presentamos a continuación forma parte de la evaluación permanente que venimos desarrollando desde hace más de una década en colaboración con la Dirección de Justicia de Gobierno Vasco.En la Ley Penal 5/2000 se contemplan dos medidas específicas para los menores de edad con problemas de salud mental: el tratamiento ambulatorio (de ejecución en medio abierto) y los internamientos terapéuticos (de ejecución en centros educativos). La investigación que presentamos ha analizado el perfil psicosocial de las personas menores de edad objeto de estas dos medidas durante el año 2019 y 2020 en la Comunidad Autónoma del País Vasco.Observamos muchas ausencias de diagnósticos de los chicos y de las chicas a pesar de la naturaleza de las medidas impuestas y apreciamos diferencias entre la población general adolescente infractora y el grupo estudiado.

Economic valuation of social demand for key features of the Noir de Bigorre pork production chain
Extensive farming systems produce for the society goods and services definable as public goods (biodiversity…), or having public good features (landscape attractiveness…). The provision of these public goods may not be guaranteed due to the lack of recognition of their values in markets and policies that ultimately can put in risk the future of these systems. Within TREASURE project, a choice experiment (CE) survey was applied to assess the social demand for relevant attributes of the Noir de Bigorre (NB) French regional pork chain producing Gascon local pig breed in extensive system with public good character. CE is an economic valuation method estimating the social demand for a given attribute or for combinations of them in management scenarios. Five relevant attributes of the NB chain and their current and potential levels in alternative management options were identified from focus groups: probability of existence of the breed in next 25 years, farm size, feedstuff origin, geographical availability of the products and type of selling places. A monetary attribute was included to assess the social demand for the previous attributes. A valuation questionnaire was administered to 418 individuals (365 through web-based survey, 53 face-to-face), half of them located in the South West of France, i.e. the production area of the NB chain. Results of the CE showed that the respondents had a distinctively urban profile, with no agricultural family background. Almost 40% of the respondents did not know or consume products from the NB chain. On average guaranteeing the survival of the breed achieved the highest willingness to pay (112.37 €/household/year). Respondents were willing to pay 42.35€ to maintain equal number of small and medium farms and 21.86€ to have feedstuff produced in the proximity of the farms. Geographical availability and selling places of products contributed to a lesser extent to shape their preferences. Funded by European Union's H2020 RIA program (grant agreement no. 634476).

Unravelling opportunities, synergies, and barriers for enhancing silvopastoralism in the Mediterranean
Silvopastoral systems combine wood perennials with forage and livestock. These multipurpose wood-pasture habitats represent an important part of European bio-cultural and ecological heritage. However, their gradual disappearance due to processes of farm abandonment and intensification as well as forestry abandonment threatens biodiversity conservation and bio-cultural heritages. The behaviours of forest owners and livestock farmers determine the success of silvopastoral systems since a productive coherence between forest management and livestock grazing is required for their optimal functioning. In this study, we investigate the livestock farmers' and forest owners' attitudes and opinions towards wood pasture grazing and their relationship with structural factors and farming objectives in two Spanish regions. We used data collected through surveys to identify opportunities, synergies, and barriers in the integration of these actors in joint silvopastoralism. The results reveal a relationship between production objectives and positive attitudes towards silvopastoralism and the environmental functions provided by this activity, in both farmers and forest owners. Cattle farmers express a greater economic interest in wood pastures, as compared to sheep farmers who perceive more difficulties in using them. Acknowledgement of the role of grazing in landscape maintenance is positively correlated with a wide spectrum of objectives of forest owners, from the economic-productivist to the more altruistic profiles. The most synergies are found between cattle farmers and small forest owners for joint silvopastoral management. However, the incorporation of sheep grazing is advisable for the sustainable management of these systems, and hence additional efforts may be required to integrate such farming systems into silvopastoral management. As it currently stands, the EU Common Agricultural Policy appears to be inadequate for maintaining silvopastoral systems.
