Abstract:This paper analyses recent landscape changes in a farmed landscape and they are related to farm and farmer characteristics. It is assumed that farm and farmer characteristics serve as mediators of large scale or macro driving of change - in the present case, a changing farming context including demands for a more environmentally friendly farming practice and a reduced output. The results are based on multivariate analyses of data that was collected from structured interviews of 160 farmers in a case study area, in central Jutland, measuring 5000 ha. The analysis indicates that farmers are highly involved in landscape changes.
