Research topic at the former chair for "Volkswirtschaftslehre, Agrarpolitik und landwirtschaftliches Informationswesen" (until 2002)
Environmental and Resource Economics (until 2002)
Note: The research activities were classified into research topics in 2000 under the head of the former chair, Prof. Henrichsmeyer. Our team dynamically develops its research agenda and refrains today from a strict classification. Not all topics documented at that time are comprised in our current research portfolio as indiacted by time spans and publication years.
The following topics are covered:
- Research promotion in the field of renewable raw materials
- Pre-study: Possibilities, preconditions and chances of lowering the overall intensitiy of agriculture production
- Development of Policy Objectives and Instruments for Agriculture and Rural Areas - Nature and Environment -
- Concepts of decentralized environmental policy, and information systems to assess sustainable land use
- Information as a private good
- European environmental policy - especially environmental liability
- Interregional division of labour and the concept of durable development
