More and more people nowadays believe that our landscapes are deteriorating. Our politicians, especially at the local level, would like to take action but do not have the tools to respond to the people's wishes. Agriculture, by exploiting much of the rural space, plays a dominant role in the evolution of our landscape. Hence the development of a tool which could be used to estimate the influence of agricultural practices on the landscape could prove to be a valuable aid within the context of any land management project.
