Factors Affecting the Implementation of Integrated Agriculture in Greece

Integrated agriculture has increased sharply in recent decades in Greece due to directives from the Common Agricultural Policy (C.A.P.), market forces, and consumer demands. The purpose of this paper is to highlight those factors affecting the adoption and rejection of the integrated systems in agriculture. The survey was based on a variance for one factor (ANOVA) analysis applied to data obtained from a survey of farmers (structured questionnaire) in Greece. These results indicate which factors are directly or indirectly related to the subsidy. They also significantly affect the implementation of integrated agriculture.
