  • Abstract
    In their recent paper, Tassone, Wesseler and Nesci conclude that the provision of subsidies for afforestation under Regulation (EEC) 2080/92 causes a substantial welfare economic loss to society. We do not find this conclusion supported and suggest that it rests upon an erroneous assumption.
