Local compensation payments for agri-environmental externalities: a panel data analysis of bargaining outcomes
分析了阿尔卑斯旅游社区中农民因提供景观服务而获得的地方补偿支付，发现支付概率与景观效益正相关，交易成本降低支付概率，补偿主要发生在景观服务感知较低的地区。

Compensation payments mainly occur in communities where the provision of agricultural landscape services is perceivedasrelatively low andthe diversityof the countryside seems tobe endangered. We argue that municipal compensation payments are an important supplement to national and European Union policy measures in support of less-favoured areas.
