1 Vadym Hetman Kyiv National Economic University, Ukraine. Sector impacts of environmental protection have been revealed by the experts in agricultural sphere F. Brouwer and J. Straaten (2002), while the evaluation of the significance of structural funds in financing Europeanisation of the sub-national policy in Poland and other Central European states has been made by M. Dabrowski (2013). From somewhat another standpoint, so to say a multistructural one, Danish researcher T. Jeppesen developed his approach to environmental issues in the EU. For him, preservation / improvement of natural environment is not just a certain type of policy, but also a system of consistent actions to prevent and control the character of pollution (Jeppesen, 2002: 103-105), with the emphasis on international trade and capital movement (Jeppesen, 2002: 117-120). So, it turns out that in order to preserve natural environment the Community urgently needs strategic policy, designed for a long-run perspective. One of the first sectoral approaches to modelling the effects of agriculture on the state of environment was proposed by a group led by the renowned Dutch professors F. Brouwer and J. van der Straaten (2002), under whose direction new prospects for Community environmental policy were developed, following the research on the underlying linkages, including marketing ones, between agricultural sector and natural environment. As a result, one of the group-members C. Potter (2002: 68-69) proposed the agri-environmental policy development in the EU.
