• Global land use change, economic globalization, and the looming land scarcity (2011, unknown): “Intensification based on mechanization and chemical-based weed control frees up labor that may migrate and convert more land to low-input agriculture (52, 57, 62).”
• Non-timber forest products and their contribution to households income around Falgore Game Reserve in Kano, Nigeria (2017, background): “…education of respondents would lead to extraction of fewer forest products since education opens up alternative employment opportunities and diverts people from subsistence livelihoods activities such as the gathering of NTFPs from the forest reserve (Shively and Pagiola 1999; Newton et al. 2016).”
• Forest Clearing in Rural Livelihoods: Household-Level Global-Comparative Evidence (2014, methodology): “It has also been applied to deforestation/forest clearing (Caviglia-Harris, 2004; Maertens, Zeller, & Birner, 2006; Shively, 2001; Shively & Pagiola, 2004; Vance & Geoghegan, submitted for publication).”
• Does intensification slow crop land expansion or encourage deforestation (2014, background): “…settings in Southeast Asia that suggest that technologies that employ more labor in the lowlands as was the case for the Green Revolution are likely to discourage forest clearing in the uplands by attracting labor away from the forest margins (Shively and Pagiola, 2004; Maertens et al., 2006).”
• Do increases in agricultural yield spare land for nature? (2009, background): “These suggest that across tropical landscapes, increasing yields can either increase or decrease deforestation rates depending on the local conditions and whether the technology was labour-intensive or labour-saving (Roebeling & Ruben, 2001; Ruf, 2001; Vosti et al., 2001; White et al., 2001; Wunder,”
• Relaxing rural constraints: a ‘win-win’ policy for poverty and environment in China? (2010, background): “For instance, failures in the o¤-farm labour market have been shown to underpin slash-and-burn agriculture, deforestation and other apparently ine¢ cient land-use practices in many developing countries (Blu¤stone 1995; Shively and Pagiola 2004).”
