- Abstract
There has been a general agreement between researchers and policy-makers that agriculture plays a crucial role with respect to sustainability. However, studies centering on sustainable development have not paid sufficient attention to agriculture, especially in developed countries where the sector has only a marginal share in the national economy. In order to measure the sustainability of agriculture it is necessary to create a system of indicators that makes it possible to monitor the development of agriculture with respect to the three pillars of sustainability, namely the environment, the society and the economy. This study attempts to set up an indicator system that enables us to measure sustainable development in the agriculture.
