The System of Environmental-Economic Accounting - Ecosystem (SEEA EA) provides an integrated statistical framework which organizes spatially explicit data on environmental quality, natural capital and ecosystem services links this information to economic activities such as agriculture. In paper we assess how the SEEA EA can support monitoring evaluation objectives Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). We focus Netherlands, for elaborate set accounts has been published, themes nitrogen pollution farmland biodiversity. studied completeness indicators included in accounts, their quality analysed could agri-environmental reporting, measures effectiveness assessments, results-based payments farmers. As a reference used Driving forces – Pressures State Impacts Responses (DPSIR) framework. Dutch only include half considered essential effects farming two themes. However, most gaps be filled with other publicly available data. Regarding N pollution, availability reliability at landscape farm scales are not sufficient assessment decrease pollution. have higher potential conserve biodiversity, particular due high resolution maps extent flows. may more limited countries where accounting recently started. is also implemented European Union scale, so that will gradually become all countries. To enhance relevance policy area, recommend integrate emissions (externalities) recorded Central Framework evaluate applicability case studies scales. Our research shows complemented sources, strongly CAP but further steps need taken fill gaps.
