Jeanneaux et al. (2011) define a classification of environmental services provided by agriculture that can be useful also to characterise different approaches to AES. They distinguish between: (1) internalization environmental services; and (2) provisioning environmental services. AES can be conceptualised as monetary fluxes paid for an environmental service provided in the frame of a transaction (ibid). This transaction takes place between the Managing Authority, representing the interests of the society, and individual farmers.

Both RDP and landscape plans share an analytical apparatus that serves to classify different portion of the land. However, in the case of RDP, the rational underlying this is, again, sectorial: for the period 2007–2013, RDP had to classify the whole territory in four main categories: urban centres, intensive agricultural rural areas, intermediate rural areas, and marginal rural areas, based on the characteristics and relative importance of agricultural activity. Conversely, landscape plans identify landscape ambits based on a more holistic analysis, taking into account the ecological, cultural, historical and perceptive dimensions.

Daniel et al. (2012) stress the fact that cultural ecosystem services are currently neither adequately defined nor taken into account within the broader ecosystem services framework. 1), we can draw a few conclusions. The leading cases of systematisation list among cultural ecosystem services many of the factors that are also the basis of current expert techniques for landscape characterisation and valuation (Landscape Institute 2013; Swanwick 2002). Moreover, cultural services performed by ecosystems can be assimilated with those provided by the landscape.
