本文比较了孟加拉国考克斯巴扎尔森林区的森林和非森林村民的生计依赖及其对Ukhia和Inani森林范围的影响。资料是在2008年12月至6月期间，以半结构式问卷进行住户访问。共有121名受访者从这两个森林地区随机选择，其中41名受访者在Inani和80名在Ukhia森林。我们在这两个林区都发现了多样化的生计活动。在这两个地点，农业耕作和收集薪材一直是这两类村民的主要活动。在各种活动中，木材和薪材的收集似乎具有很大的负面影响，而其他活动的影响被认为相对较小。结果还表明，这两种类型的村民依赖于森林资源。非林区村民除从事劳动外，更自由地从事商业和服务等创收活动。薪材和木材采集对森林资源和生物多样性有很大的负面影响。建议必须采取步骤，开展替代性创收活动和/或参与性管理办法，以促进两个研究地点的森林及其生物多样性的可持续性
This article compared livelihood dependency of forest and non-forest villagers and their impacts on Ukhia and Inani forest ranges of Cox’s bazar forest division, Bangladesh. Information was collected through household’s interviews using a semi-structured questionnaire during December to June 2008. Total 121 respondents were randomly selected from both forest areas, where 41 respondents were in Inani and 80 were in Ukhia forest. We found diversified livelihood activities in both forest areas. Agrofarming and fuelwood collection turned out to be consistently major activities of both types of villagers at the two sites. Of the various activities, timber and fuelwood collection appeared to have high negative impact, while others were deemed to have comparatively less impact. The results also indicated that both types of villagers depend on forest resources. The non-forest villagers appeared freer to engage in such income earning activities as business and service besides labor work. Fuelwood and timber collection had high negative impact on forest resources and biodiversity. It is suggested that steps are necessary for alternative income generation activities and/or participatory management approaches for sustainability of the forests and their biodiversity at the two study sites
