英文摘要 |
The paper reviews the changing production patterns on European agriculture and the range of environmental effects that result. It identifies the prevailing models that have informed the development of policy for agriculture and environment, and relates these to distinct cultural perspectives and intervention strategies. The paper then examines in turn the evolution of the different strategies for improved integration of environmental objectives into agriculture. They include the reduction of support prices, formal environmental regulation, agrienvironmental incentives and environmental cross-compliance. The European experience pursuing each of these is reviewed and it is concluded that effective environmental integration will require the pursuit of a combination of them. |
