Abstract -
We suggest a new framework for assessing and improvement of environmental management and 
strategies in agri-business incorporating interdisciplinary New Institutional Economics. It includes: specification 
of “managerial needs” and spectrum of governance modes of eco-management at different level of decision-
making; specification of critical socio-economic, natural, technological, behavioral etc. factors of managerial 
choice, and feasible spectrum of (private, collective, public, international) managerial strategies; assessment 
of efficiency of diverse management strategies taking into account the potential to protect eco-rights and 
investments, assure desirable level of environmental conservation and improvement, minimize overall 
(implementing, thirdparty, transaction etc.) costs, coordinate and stimulate eco-activities, meet preferences 
and reconcile conflicts of individuals etc.
Keywords : 
"environmental and natural resources; governance; strategies; institutions, market, private, public 
modes; agri-business".
