Abstract: Ecological focus areas are one of the greening measures for CAP under which farm payments under Pillar 1 are made. The funds aim to conserve and improve biodiversity, when farms are choosing the support elements. The objectives of the study are to review the literature on the impact of biodiversity on agricultural land and the resources used. The benefits for farms are derived from the application of environmental practices and their impact on biodiversity. The potential ecological impact for the environment is also analyzed.
