Population structure and nut yield of a Bertholletia excelsa stand in Southwestern Amazonia (2005, background): “Subsequent, more refined conceptual analyses of NTFPs centered on the ecological implications of NTFP harvest (Peters, 1996; Arnold and Pérez, 2001; Ticktin, 2004), the challenge of maintaining long-term economic viability of extracted resources from the wild (Homma, 1992; Wilkie and Godoy, 1996), a”
Forest environmental income in Vietnam: household socioeconomic factors influencing forest use (2008, background): “However, the initial optimism that the twin goals of conservation and economic development could be linked through NTFP extraction seems to have diminished (RuizPérez & Arnold 1996; Arnold & Ruiz-Pérez 2001).”
