Sustainable farming in Australia: Market instruments for improved land management

可持续农业已成为国家的优先事项。随着气候变化和全球经济压力加剧了农村地区面临的问题，澳大利亚政府试图将更可持续的土地管理与有竞争力的农业部门结合起来。已提出若干使用市场激励的政策工具，以管理农场生存能力和环境可持续性的相互竞争的需求。该项目将调查牛肉、乳制品和粮食种植者对这些举措的反应，以及它们在解决紧迫环境问题方面的潜力。这项研究将对未来农业、弹性农村社区和环境可持续发展澳大利亚的政策设计做出重要贡献。

Sustainable farming has become a national priority. As climate change and global economic pressures increase the problems facing rural areas, Australian governments have attempted to combine more sustainable land management with a competitive agricultural sector. Several policy instruments using market incentives have been proposed to manage the competing demands of farm viability and environmental sustainability. This project will examine the responses of beef, dairy and grain farmers to these initiatives and their potential for addressing pressing environmental issues. The research will make a vital contribution to the design of policies for the future of farming, resilient rural communities and an environmentally sustainable Australia.
