      <abstract>
        <p>Homo sapiens, as the highest biological species, develops and upgrades its ideas about the environment, and changes its behaviour to</p>
        <p>the natural factor; this way, it changes the institutional norm, which has the greatest impact on human behaviour. Natural ecosystems</p>
        <p>maintain their balance themselves. Regarding artificial systems such as agro-systems, when the anthropogenic impact violates their</p>
        <p>adaptive capacity, development becomes unsustainable. The current research is aimed at finding the synergy between EU policy and</p>
        <p>the management of land resources. The policies with the most influence are the Green Deal and the CAP, and are the main subject</p>
        <p>of this research. Their impact on land management is shown using a scientific method, and includes the review of literature sources,</p>
        <p>expert methods, and ad hoc evaluation, plus SWOT analysis. In agriculture, a number of policies have changed in order to create</p>
        <p>synergies between the biological factor and the institutional environment. There is potential for synergy between policy and good</p>
        <p>management.</p>
