This text has three main objectives: to show the development of the Common Agicultural Policy and the status of environmental priorities in agriculture; to analyze the implementation of the relevant Agri-Environmental law and policy in the United Kingdom; and to examine those other areas of Agri-Environmental law which are not tied to subsidies and production quotas in agriculture. Against this background there is a historical of the development of environmental concerns in agriculture both in the European Union and the United Kingdom, with a comparative analysis of the position in the United States and Denmark. Overall, the book takes a critical look at the often controversial relationship between the supply control mechanisms of agricultural policy and the environmental priorities of landscape protection and pollution control.
