Abstract

NIBIO har evaluert regionale miljøtilskudd i jordbruket, og der det har vært prioritert å se på miljøeffektene av ordningen og forvaltningsmodellen. Formålet med tilskuddsordningen er å bidra til å redusere forurensningen og ivareta viktige miljøverdier i jordbruket. Gjennomgangen viser at ordningen har god måloppnåelse, og de regionale prosessene og forvaltningen fungerer godt. Det pekes samtidig på en del tiltak som kan øke måloppnåelsen, redusere kompleksiteten og forbedre samhandlingen ytterligere.
