We present a thorough study of the plastic response of a granular materialprogressively loaded. We study experimentally the evolution of the plasticfield from a homogeneous one to an heterogeneous one and its fluctuations interm of incremental strain. We show that the plastic field can be decomposed intwo components evolving on two decoupled strain increment scales. We argue thatthe slowly varying part of the field can be identified to the so-calledfluidity field introduced recently to interpret the rheological behaviour ofamorphous materials. This fluidity field progressively concentrates along amacroscopic direction corresponding to the Mohr-Coulomb angle.
