Abstract: Abstract The focus of this chapter is on the relationship between environmental performance and exports at country or industry level. The aim is to provide an analysis of these relationships at the firm level. Can environmental performance explain differences in export intensity between firms? Does a firm’s environmental performance improve as its export activity improves? The approach followed is a composite equation model in which export intensity and productivity components, including environmental productivity, are jointly determined, taking as reference the exporting firms of the agro-food industry in southeast Spain.
