非木材林产品的供应是一项重要的供应生态系统服务。人们经常争辩说,森林养护有助于通过向穷人提供非森林保护措施来减贫。然而,关于缺乏其他生存选择的穷人更密集地使用国家森林产品的隐含假设,以及国家森林产品供应受到森林覆盖的限制这一论点,很少受到严格审查。这项研究利用从87个村庄的1596户家庭收集的土地覆盖图和社会经济数据集,调查了婆罗洲农村地区影响非土地利用效率的社会和环境因素。被检查的NTFP是野猪、桑巴鹿、野果、柴火、野菜和野生蘑菇。使用广义线性混合模型,考虑了4个村庄和9个家庭的特征,以解释家庭间净净效益使用的差异。我们发现,森林覆盖和收集压力限制了一些非净功能因子的使用,支持第二个假设。另一方面,第一个假设只被用于柴火,而动物和野生水果更多地被富裕的家庭使用,与这一假设相反。其他因素(教育程度、户主的年龄和性别以及农业活动)也与使用一种或多种非关税品有关。这项研究表明,森林复盖率和其他因素影响人们获得的生态系统服务的过程是复杂的。生态系统服务评价是当今一个重要而紧迫的研究课题,但也需要关注谁受益,谁不受益。
Supply of non-timber Forest Products (NTFPs) is an important provisioning ecosystem service. It is often argued that forest conservation contributes to poverty alleviation through provisioning of NTFPs to the poor. However, implicit assumptions of the argument that NTFPs are more intensively utilized by poor who lack alternative subsistence options, and that NTFP supplies are limited by forest cover, have rarely been critically examined. This study investigated social and environmental factors affecting NTFP uses in rural areas of Borneo, using a land cover map and socio-economic dataset collected from 1596 households in 87 villages. The NTFPs examined were wild boars, sambar deer, wild fruits, firewood, wild vegetables, and wild mushrooms. To explain the variations in NTFP uses among households, four village and nine household characteristics were considered using generalized linear mixed models. We found that forest cover and collection pressure limit the use of some NTFPs, supporting the second assumption. On the other hand, the first assumption was supported only for firewood, and animals and wild fruits were more frequently used by wealthier households, contrary to this assumption. Other factors (education, age and sex of householder and agricultural activities) were also related to the use of one or more NTFPs. This study demonstrates the complexity of the process by which forest cover and other factors affect the ecosystem services people receive. Evaluation of ecosystem services is an important and urgent research subject today, but it is also necessary to pay attention to who receives the benefits, and who does not.
