“…4 Secondly, the farmers do not exclusively pursue the income augmentation with their investment, but they also try to achieve a variety of non-economic goals such as a reduction in workload, the improvement of the work quality and the adjustment of the daily farm work balanced with the family life (Viaggi et al 2011). In this context, it can be said that our results indicate that the investing farmers cannot reduce their workload significantly more than their controls.…”

Farm investments in the European Union are supported by the governmental programmes. Th e evaluation of this programme is challenged through the voluntary participation and heterogeneous observation units. Th erefore, we combine the Matching Method with the Diff erence-in-Diff erence estimation in order to overcome these problems and to estimate the impact of supported farm-investment activities on the economic performance of the Austrian farm holdings. In particular, we detect an increase in production, land renting and capital borrowing. Furthermore, a shift from the non-farm to farm activities, but with no statistically signifi cant impact on the total income is shown.

“…Stated choices regarding changes in the policy identified via survey reveal actual (or true) behavior. This stated behavior can help to understand the differentiated effects of the policy [42][43][44]. This method inquires respondent's WTP for the change in environmental quality (e.g., hypothetical improvements in water quality) through the survey instrument in assessing the impact of the policy change on individual welfare [26,45].…”

This study examines the willingness to pay (WTP) for the highland agriculture restriction policy which aims to stabilize the water quality in the Han River basin, South Korea. To estimate the WTP, we use a double-bounded contingent valuation method and a random-effects interval-data regression. We extend contingent valuation studies by dealing with the potential preference anomalies (shift, anchoring, and inconsistent response effects). The result indicates that after the preference anomalies are corrected, the statistical precision of parameter estimates is improved. After correcting the potential preference anomalies, estimated welfare gains are on average South Korean currency (KRW) 2,861 per month per household. Based on the WTP estimate, the total benefits from the land use restriction policy are around KRW 297.73 billion and the total costs are around KRW 129.44 billion. The net benefit is, thus, around KRW 168.29 billion. This study suggests several practical solutions that would be useful for the water management. First, a priority should be given to the valid compensation for the highland farmers' expected income loss. Second, it is necessary to increase in the unit cost of the highland purchase. Third, wasted or inefficiently used costs (e.g., overinvestment in waste treatment facilities, and temporary upstream community support) should be transferred to the program associated with high mountainous agriculture field purchase. Results of our analysis support South Korean legislators and land use policy makers with useful information for the approval and operationalization of the policy.

“…Studies concerning the influence of 2003 CAP reforms on farm structural change (Douarin et al, 2007;Tranter et al, 2007;Genius et al, 2008;Gorton et al, 2008;Lobley and Butler, 2010) including investments and adoption of innovations (Gallerani et al, 2008;Viaggi et al, 2011), or land idling due to decoupling from production (Bougherara and Latruffe, 2010) are available instead. As a whole, farmers' reactions to policy reforms emerge to be rather modest or at least more modest than expected.…”
