Forests, Livelihoods, and Conservation: Broadening the Empirical Base (2014, background): “…a powerful livelihoods incentive in forested areas—making rural asset-poor producers better off (Ainembabazi, Shively, & Angelsen, 2013; Khundi, Jagger, Sserunkuuma, & Shively, 2011) and providing “stepping stones” for reinvestment of profits into other sectors (Schure et al., 2014; Stoian, 2005).”
Explaining variation in Brazil nut fruit production (2007, background): “Because of this central importance of Brazil nut to the regional economy, household income shortfalls across this entire supply chain were attributed most frequently to insufficient Brazil nut production in any given locality or year (Stoian, 2005).”
Invisible But Viable: Recognising Local Markets for Non-Timber Forest Products (2007, background): “His research in the Bolivian Amazon has shown that locally important forest products can make a significant contribution to income generation and poverty reduction in urban and peri-urban environments (Stoian 2005).”
