Abstract

The data set contains the information about 2,721 respondents observed with respect to 157 variables. Data were collected at national level on the case studies of the CONSOLE Consortium partners by means of a survey on farmers/land managers/forests owners. The surveys were carried out with a common questionnaire that was built within the framework of the CONSOLE project. The surveys were carried out in 13 countries of the European Union. Data were properly anonymized by each CONSOLE partner and assembled together by the UNIBO team. They have been operated through proper data management and assembled as a coherent and cohesive data set. The latter contains variables on the socio-demographic characteristics of the respondents, variables related to the structural features of the agricultural/forests holdings as well as behavioural information and variables related to the opinions expressed by the respondents on the four innovative contract solutions investigated by the CONSOLE project.
