The European Union’s Farm-to-Fork strategy, aiming at increasing the environmental sustainability of farming, is oriented to limit farm inputs that could harm environment. This restrictive policy affects farmers’ productive choices and economic well-being. However, limited attention has been paid how this affect risk farmers face.

Abstract This article investigates the causal relationship between family farming and rural labour markets. To this end, we combine farm accountancy data public market statistics at district level (NUTS-3) for years 2008–2013. While cross-sectional regressions reveal a strong robust negative correlation share of unemployment rate in region, fixed-effects panel suggest is not causal. Instead, fi...
