We first develop an  analytical model showing that both decisions are linked and  influenced
by risk and direct payments. Then, a numerical  application based on a stochastic farm model
is implemented  on a representative farm from southwestern France. Among  other things, we
find that a wide availability of marketing  contracts reduces the impact of agricultural policies
on  agricultural practices. Moreover, marketing contracts can  encourage farmers to adopt green
practices, which are—in  France—riskier than conventional techniques.},
