The Hidden and External Costs of Pesticide Use (2016, background): “For instance, mandatory governmental regulations concerning pesticide use may require particular activities, e.g. water monitoring (Pretty et al. 2000 , 2001 ; Waibel et al. 1999 ), and equipment, e.g. water fi lters (Pimentel et al. 1992 , 1993a , b ; Pimentel and Greiner 1997 ; Pimentel and Hart…”
Agri-Environmental Stewardship Schemes and “Multifunctionality” (2004, background): “The 1992 MacSharry CAP reforms began to weaken the links between production and farm income support, and were followed with financial assistance packages to U.K. farmers to convert to organic agriculture or accomplish a variety of environmental outcomes.”
Reducing food poverty by increasing agricultural sustainability in developing countries (2003, background): “Most agricultural sustainability improvements seen in the 1990s arose despite existing national and institutional policies, rather than because of them (Pretty, 1999; Pretty et al., 2001).”
