Research Abstract

The conceptual integration of agriculture and landscape makes it possible to understand consequently the agri-environmental benefits. With this integration the following facts will be logically proved : the agricultural activities produce agricultural products and agricultural landscape (agricultural space, agricultural region) at the same time, and the agricultural activities (the internal economy) cause the external effects (the external economies or external dis-economies) on three elements of the agricultural landscape (agricultural space or agricultural region), namely on the inorganic element (soil, water, air), oh the organic element (plants and animals), and aesthetic element (diversification of landscape elements, crop rotation, hedges on the field, ponds etc.).
The external economies and dis-economies are successive and its boundary is called as "the code of good agricultural practice", whose level will be determined not only by the criterion of natural science, but also from a political aspect of property right of farmers on the environment, and therefore its level stands at first near the present condition of the farming. Now this code has become an obligation for farmers and farmer must conduct their farming in compliance with the code. If a farmer practices his farming so intensive (far beyond the level of the code) that he contaminates the elements of the agricultural landscape (the environment), he must pay the recovery costs of the environment himself (Polluter Pays Principle). If a farmer conducts his farming so environment-friendly that his farming contributes to the environmental benefits of the agricultural landscape, he will be paid for his additional costs of farming by the government (Public Charge Principle). This type of the direct payments to farmers by the government is called as the environmental payments and they are performed within an agri-environmental program.
