在许多国家平衡经济发展、生态保护和社会正义的努力中，植树造林扮演着有争议的角色。本文试图通过分析这些种植园的社会经济影响来促进这场辩论。我们的研究重点是智利，这个国家经历了工业树木种植园的惊人增长。我们的分析利用了一个独特的数据集，其中包括2001-2011年在180个城市地区收集的纵向观测数据。采用面板数据回归技术，我们发现在这一时期，人工林面积的增长与高于平均水平的贫困率相关。
Tree plantations play a controversial role in many nations’ efforts to balance goals for economic development, ecological conservation, and social justice. This paper seeks to contribute to this debate by analyzing the socioeconomic impact of such plantations. We focus our study on Chile, a country that has experienced extraordinary growth of industrial tree plantations. Our analysis draws on a unique dataset with longitudinal observations collected in 180 municipal territories during 2001–2011. Employing panel data regression techniques, we find that growth in plantation area is associated with higher than average rates of poverty during this period.
