Résumé : | In the Mediterranean countries private farmers, who also are the owners, manage the largest portion of the land. As is well known their behaviour strongly influence the healthy of the soils and the rural environmental in general. In fact in the Mediterranean context family manages the most of the farms, which behaviour depends not only on the farm characteristics but also on features of the family. This study, by using the data collected by a representative family-farm sample in the Agri Basin (Southern Italy), where a large part of territory is profoundly affected by soil degradation, attempts to build an economic model of farm behaviour under these physical and agronomic conditions. In order to achieve this aim, first, it is necessary to find and select the main variables and the relationship among them that historically have influenced the family-farms land use decisions, then asses the family-farm reaction to policy instruments. The proposed model can also evaluate the real economic links among the farming activity, land and family living on it |
