The case studies presented concern a variety of environmental, agricultural and natural resource issues - such as the management of water resources, forests and agricultural landscapes; conservation of biodiversity and cultural heritage; noise pollution reduction and food labeling. The book highlights how the choice experiment method can be employed to inform efficient and effective design and implementation of various EU level agricultural and environmental policies and directives, including the Common Agricultural Policy, Water Framework Directive, Forestry Strategy, Habitats Directive and food labeling systemsSummary: Applications of the choice experiment method in Europe : a review / Ekin Birol, Phoebe Koundouri and Yiannis Kountouris -- Using mixed logit models to derive individual-specific WTP estimates for landscape improvements under agri-environmental schemes : evidence from the Rural Environment Protection Scheme in Ireland / Danny Campbell, W.
