Abstract
In the paper we report the preliminary achievements of a research project whose basic aim is to build up simulation procedures able to detect discrepancies between the agricultural sector's performances (in terms of income and environmental quality) and the policy-maker's goals, and, on these grounds, to identify policy measures capable of reducing such a gap. In order to try out these procedures, a typically rural area situated in the southern part of the Veneto region (Italy), was selected.
