How the SEEA Experimental Ecosystem Accounting framework could be used for growth accounting and productivity analysis

In light of the ongoing realities of climate change and the increasing demand for food around the world, understanding the capacity of the environment to support agricultural production is of upmost concern. An important part of this understanding is the organization and analysis of information about the link between the environmental assets and ecosystems that underpin agricultural production and the production functions that describe the activities of the economic units (including households) that are involved in that activity. Commonly, environmental and economic analysis is not conducted in an integrated manner and the available information does not generally support such analysis.
