Abstract: Agriculture has marked the beginning of the changes from natural economy to non-natural economy, as the transition from traditional farming practices to the industrial ones. Theoretically, in terms of agri-environmental measures, the approach of the agriculture – environment relationship has as starting point the cybernetic model of socio-ecological system and, specifically, the land use in agriculture. While the pressure on food resources is increasing and the current development models have specific values, this paper proposes a reconceptualization of agriculture intensification and a new form of it, namely the informational intensification. Likewise, as a consequence of integrating environmental policy into the development policy of rural socio-ecological systems (CSE), this study proposes a system of indicators grouped as explanatory variables, impact variables, and economic variables.
