Abstract:
Many western politicians are fond of giving public money to farmers to grow more food. In Europe, a relatively recent phenomenon is to pay farmers to not produce food – or, more accurately, to pay them to produce nature. There are now proposals to extend such ‘payments for ecosystem services’ (PES) schemes to developing countries.
