关于购买开发权计划是否具有成本效益，针对公众真正需要的保留土地的非市场属性，存在很多争论。本文应用层次分析法（AHP）的一般人口调查数据，以比较公众的价值来源的环境，农业，增长控制，开放空间属性的保护土地。层次分析法是一种方法，鼓励受访者作出微妙的权衡，在不可量化的，非市场属性的保护土地。层次分析法还衡量一个属性相对于另一个属性的相对公众偏好。虽然这种方法是完全不同的联合分析和其他选择为基础的方法来处理权衡非市场商品，层次分析法的结果是高度可比性，并提供另一种方式来判断这些补充方法的有效性。从特拉华州居民收集的数据的AHP应用程序的结果发现，公众的偏好是最强的环境和农业属性的农田，两个潜在的相反的属性。生长控制和开放空间被认为是不太重要的。在更精确的层面上，对这些属性的质量进行比较表明，公众赞成农业土地保护，因为它保护了农村生活方式，这也被视为保护了人类的环境质量。研究结果基本上验证了克莱恩和威彻恩斯（Land Econ.72（1996，p.538）和罗森伯格（Land Econ.74（1998，p.557））的结论。(C)2002 Elsevier Science B.V.保留所有权利。
Much debate exists on whether purchase of development rights programs are cost-effectively targeting the nonmarket attributes of preserved land that the public truly demands. This paper applies the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to general population survey data in order to compare the public's sources of value for the environmental, agricultural, growth control, and open space attributes of preserved land. AHP is a methodology that encourages respondents to make subtle trade-offs in nonquantifiable, nonmarket attributes of preserved land. AHP also measures the relative public preference of one attribute over another attribute. Although this methodology is entirely different from conjoint analysis and other choice-based methods for processing trade-offs for nonmarket goods, the results of AHP are highly comparable to and offer another way to adjudge the validity of these complementary methods. The results of the AHP application to data collected from Delaware residents find that public preference is strongest for the environmental and agricultural attributes of farmland, two potentially opposing attributes. Growth control and open space are found to be less important. At a more precise level, a comparison of the qualities of these attributes shows that the public favors agricultural land preservation because it protects a rural way of life, which also is seen to protect human-regarding environmental quality. Results generally validate those of Kline and Wichelns (Land Econ. 72 (1996, p. 538) and Rosenberger (Land Econ. 74 (1998, p. 557). (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
