With this in view, a three-pronged research strategy needs to be developed: first, the multifunctional role of agricultural and forestry activity must be incorporated into the various production systems as a focus for a new CAP capable of ensuring the sustainable development of rural areas; second, with a view to securing sustainable agricultural production, greater knowledge is needed of the impact of agriculture’s negative externalities; lastly, appropriate political mechanisms must be devised to meet these challenges, making it possible to provide farmers with aid in return for the goods and services of public interest they provide ...[+++](positive externalities), introduce new production methods that are more environment-friendly and help protect genetic resources, geared to individual production systems, improve farm waste recycling techniques, develop alternatives to existing inputs to guarantee production and combat pests and diseases, encourage techniques to combat erosion and the effects of fires and acid rain on forests and, finally, study animal welfare rules while determining the precise economic effects on farms.

In this respect, the 1992 report by the sub-committee on acid rain of the Standing Committee on the Environment was quite clear, and I quote: ``Thus, while a unilateral Canadian program of controls on acid-rain-generating emissions might carry moral or political suasion, it is recognized that a permanent solution to the problem in North America must include the United S ...[+++]tates''.
