Summary/Abstract: Environmental services as externalities, are often overlooked in economic analyses of business activity. This approach is particularly disadvantageous in agriculture, since some of the services 3uch as soil fertility and pollination are key processes decisive of productivity in this sector.The purpose of this article is to present environmental services related to agriculture and the creation of a coherent classification. These considerations have been carried out by the critical analysis of available literature on the theory of environmental services.
