An assessment of market-based approaches to providing ecosystem services on agricultural lands (2007, background): “This seems to be based on the increasing evidence of the successful use of market-based approaches in conservation schemes around the world (Landell-Mills and Porras, 2002; Pagiola et al., 2002), as well as the popular view that markets by nature generally are superior allocation mechanisms.”
The Efficiency of Payments for Environmental Services in Tropical Conservation (2007, background): “There are many incipient PES initiatives (Landell-Mills & Porras 2002; Pagiola et al. 2002), but for PES schemes with some experience and with money conditionally changing hands, one is typically referred only to Costa Rica and a couple of dozen other pioneer experiences, mostly in Latin America.”
Paying for the environmental services of silvopastoral practices in Nicaragua (2007, background): “Recent years have seen numerous efforts to devise innovative mechanisms to induce farmers to adopt practices that generate higher levels of services (Landell-Mills and Porras, 2002; Pagiola et al., 2002).”
Payments for Ecosystem Services in Nicaragua: Do Market-based Approaches Work? (2010, background): “However, this changes if they receive payments from ES buyers which at least cover the land users’ opportunity costs of more environmentally-sound land use, thus ‘tipping the balance’ in favour of ES provisioning (Engel et al., 2008; Pagiola et al., 2002; Wunder, 2005).”
Market-based instruments for biodiversity and ecosystem services: A lexicon (2012, background): “…mechanisms promise increased efficiency and increased effectiveness, as well as increased equity in the distribution of costs and benefits’’ (Pagiola et al., 2002), but also ‘‘such policies, if carefully designed and implemented, can achieve environmental goals at significantly less…”
China's sloping land conversion program: Institutional innovation or business as usual? (2008, background): “…principals of volunteerism, but also suggest that the program is not obtaining the efficiency gains promised by payment for environmental services (PES) programs over traditional command-and-control approaches via use of a market-based, voluntary mechanism of participation (Pagiola et al., 2002).”
How can market mechanisms for forest environmental services help the poor?: preliminary Lessons from Latin America (2005, background): “Following Pagiola et al. (2002), we define market-based mechanisms as initiatives that involve the sale of environmental services to change the incentives of forest managers and/or to generate resources to finance conservation efforts.”
Payments for ecosystem services: justified or not? A political view (2010, background): “…payments should secure the basic economic premise of efficiency optimisation of scarce conservation funds (Ferraro, 2001; Ferraro and Simpson, 2002; Pagiola et al., 2002), by taking advantage of the land users’ knowledge of the cost of ES provision and seeking out the low-cost providers (Engel et…”
