%X The main objective of the paper is to assess the importance ofregional preferences in financing of agri-environmental measures. The analysisis based on results of a case study conducted in South-eastern Poland. Asenvironmental protection in agriculture is complex and often considered inpolitical strategies, it is worth analyzing the differences in perception of therespective environmental objectives from a regional perspective. Taking intoaccount natural conditions and the economic situation in agriculture in thevoivodship Subcarpathia, the question is how regional environmental objectivescould be achieved effectively with a given budget. Using Linear Programming,we discuss how regional preferences would guide optimal and objectiveorientedbudget allocations.
