In this article we consider what Australia can learn from English experience with regard to the design, implementation and evaluation of Agri-Environmental Policy (AEP). First, we examine the emergence of the need for farmers to meet Good Farming Practice standards to receive AEP payments. This concept closely relates to the duty of care' idea in Australia.

Finally, we consider the importance of benefit and costs estimates of AEP implementation in determining policy developments. We conclude with a summary of results for AEP design and implementation in Australia. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Australian Journal of Environmental Management Taylor & Francis

Abstract

In this article we consider what Australia can learn from English experience with regard to the design, implementation and evaluation of Agri-Environmental Policy (AEP). First, we examine the emergence of the need for farmers to meet Good Farming Practice standards to receive AEP payments. This concept closely relates to the duty of care' idea in Australia. Second, we explain how contracts have been used to implement AEP identifying important issues in design. Finally, we consider the importance of benefit and costs estimates of AEP implementation in determining policy developments. We conclude with a summary of results for AEP design and implementation in Australia.
