According to an independent study into public attitudes towards agriculture, the public gives full backing to changes in agricultural policy that encourage farmers to take better care of the environment. The Scottish taxpayer takes a very positive view of the role agriculture plays in the countryside and supports the new system of subsidy payment which backs environment and rural development. The public showed most support for policies relating to the promotion of locally grown food, enhanced quality of lochs, rivers and wetlands, enhancing wildlife habitats and maintaining farming communities. http://www.scotland.gov.uk/News/Releases/2004/09/0 6095042
