Abstract: Nonmarket valuation techniques can be used to examine the relationship between agricultural practices and the environment. This report provides theoretical descriptions of the most popular nonmarket valuation techniques, which are the travel cost method and the contingent valuation method. In addition, several case studies of applications with agricultural implications are presented.
