| Title: | The Political Economy of EU Agri-environmental measures: An empirical Assessment at the Regional Level |
| Authors: | Bertoni, Danilo

| Issue Date: | 2008 |
| Abstract: | The paper deals with the political economy
determinants of EU agri-environmental measures
(AEMs) applied by 59 regional/country units, during the
2001-2004 period. Five different groups of determinants,
spanning from positive and negative externalities to
political institutions, are highlighted and tested using an
econometric model. The main results suggest that AEMs
implementation is mostly affected by the strength of
farm lobbies, political institutions and the demand for
positive externalities. On the contrary, AEMs do not
seem implemented by the willingness to address negative
externalities. |
