Analisi del rapporto tra valori fondiari e aiuto pubblico: possibili effetti sui cambiamenti di uso del suolo

Published 2015-08-04

Abstract

Agricultural policies can affect farm economic performances in a such deep manner that sometimes, in the case of absence of public support, this could lead to the termination of production in many rural realities. The objective of this work is to propose a method of assessing the risk of abandonment of agricultural activity that is based on the comparison between the estimated rent and the public aid received by each farms. The methodological approach stems from the inability to detect directly the value of rent and it is based on the elaboration of the database provided by the Agenzia del Territorio on Valori Agricoli Medi (VAM).
