Agriculture
French term or phrase: rente agraire
En fait, environ le 25 pour cent de la rente agraire en Espagne se nourri des aides directes. Si on y rajoute les aides indirectes perçues (développement rural, etc.) et d’autres subventions implicites (prix de l’eau, fiscalité différentielle de carburants et autres), le soutien réel à la rente agraire doublerait au moins le pourcentage antérieur. Ces aides et l’augmentation de la productivité expliquent le progrès de la rente agraire par employé qui, en 15 ans, a augmenté de plus de 52 pour cent en termes réels!
La valeur de la Rente Agraire 2007, en termes courants s’élève à 25.030,7 euros et expérimente une croissance de 9,7 % par rapport à l’année antérieure. La valeur des aides/subventions (investissement direct dans l’agriculture en Espagne-2007) - 6.396,90 millions d’euros.

The text was translated from Spanish into French, so I am not sure that it is the correct term (only 187 hits in google, and only 29 on French sites; besides, the text is not written in good French, in general). From the context I guess that it is not the subvention from the EU for farmers, so... I really do not know. Income from agriculture? I would really appreciate your help ;-)

Explanation:
As Frédéric suggests in the discussion entries, this sounds like a mistranslation of "renta agraria", a widely used term in economics. I hope you'll excuse a Spanish reference in a French forum!

"La renta agraria representa el valor generado por la actividad de la producción agraria, es decir, mide la remuneración de todos los factores de producción (tierra, capital y trabajo)."

Explanation:
The only thing that seems to make sense of "...rente agraire par employé qui, en 15 ans, a augmenté de plus de 52 pour cent en termes réels!" Also I think that the word "millions" must have been omitted after "25.030,7" in order for it to be compatible with subsidies of "6.396,90 millions d’euros".

However, it seems a bit risky to make the above assumptions without some further evidence.
