The agri-environmental footprint index

摘要

The Agri-Environmental Footprint project is developing a common methodologyfor assessing the environmental impact of European agri-environment schemes. TheAgri-Environmental Footprint Index (AFI) has been constructed as a customisableapproach. It is a farm-level index that aggregates the measurement of agri-environmental indicators. Farm-level impact scores can be aggregated at a regionallevel to track temporal change and/or to provide comparisons of the success (orotherwise) of an agri-environment scheme.
