The recent Curry Commission report recognised the need to provide incentives for the production of public goods in terms of the environment. This is a particular advantage for organic farming because its biodiversity benefit is no longer being seriously questioned and many, large NGOs have a positive policy attitude towards organic farming. However, to ensure a good deal for organic farming in any new development of agri-environment schemes, the organic sector needs to play a positive role, with careful consideration of all steps in the development of policy.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc"> Environmental aspects</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">   "Organics" in general</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc"> Regulation</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc"> Biodiversity and ecosystem services</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2002</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Organic Centre Wales, Institute of Rural Studies, University of Wales Aberystwyth</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Conference paper, poster, etc. </mods:genre></mods:mods>
