The Use of Indicators in Agri-environmental Managemanent in the Netherlands

This report represents part of the research carried out in the Landscape Partners Project which aims to identify, analyse and assess the contribution of multi-stakeholder partnerships to the sustainable management of rural landscapes and to the well-being of communities. For the Dutch case study, the investigation focussed on Agrarische Natuurverenigingen (ANVs). They are agri-environmental collaborative groups which were selected because they represent a mix of stakeholders, including farmers, citizens, municipalities and nature conservation interests
