Regulatory instruments alone are not sufficient to achieve an increase in forest cover. Even existing subsidy schemes do not convince farmers to afforest. We show under which conditions a transformation from agricultural dominated to mosaic landscapes could be possible.

This research explores the potential to improve agri-environmental measures’ effectiveness, in the context of a multifunctional agro-forest system in Portugal. The analysis assesses farmer preferences through a choice experiment and informs contract design and acceptable compensation levels for agri-environmental agreements targeting Natura 2000 sites.

How do small farmers ascribe social meaning or relevance to externally administered instruments for forest conservation on forest frontiers? We evaluate institutional perspectives among beneficiaries in three agrarian reform settlements in NW Mato Grosso. Social authority and legitimacy of the state environmental regulatory system emerged through cooperative arrangements induced by pilot projects.

The paper analyses the characteristics of policy instrument mix for addressing nutrient runoff and GHG emissions from agriculture. Optimal policy design requires policy mix consisting of emission taxes levied on both fertilizer use and autonomous soil emissions and soil carbon sequestration payments for switching land use from crop production to green set-aside and afforestation.
