Book Synopsis Farmland Conversion The Spatial Dimension of Agricultural and Land Use Policies by : OECD
Book excerpt: Land is a key input into agricultural production and the agricultural sector remains the main user of rural land in most OECD countries. How land is managed in agriculture, and the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses, are likely to have implications not only for the provision of food, but also for the supply of public goods such as rural amenities, as well as for the quantity and quality of water.
