Abstract: 
Environmentally friendly agricultural technology has become a policy issue. It can be regarded as innovations which benefit farmers and the environment due to higher productivity, less externalities, and lower costs. Precision farming fits into this policy framework. However, environment-related innovations in precision farming need financial incentives and policy design. Furthermore, policy makers have alternatives; these tend to be support for organic farming. There is also competition for the money available for eco-friendly ideas. This paper investigates a concept in which innovations are eco-friendly, costly and undertaken by a large input providing industry, and in which cross compliance is applied in organic farming.
