• The Role of Forest-Related Income in Household Economies and Rural Livelihoods in the Border-Region of Southern China (2013, result): “Many of the case studies that focus on forest and environmental income from natural forests suggest that forest products play a role in filling seasonal income gaps and as safety nets in times of crises (Byron & Arnold, 1999; Fisher & Shively, 2005; McSweeney, 2004; Pattanayak & Sills, 2001; Paumgar”
• The role of non-timber forest products in household coping strategies in South Africa: the influence of household wealth and gender (2011, background): “Households rely on an array of products, whose contribution extends beyond the direct-use value and associated cost saving, to include indirect benefits and an important ‘‘gap-filling’’ and ‘‘safety-net’’ function (Delacote 2007; Hunter et al. 2011; McSweeney 2004; Paumgarten 2005; Shackleton and ”
• Non-timber forest products and their contribution to households income around Falgore Game Reserve in Kano, Nigeria (2017, background): “In the developing nations, NTFPs are therefore considered a safety net that fills the gaps due to a shortfall in agricultural production or other forms of emergencies (Shackleton and Shackleton 2004; Paumgarten 2005; Angelsen et al. 2014).”
• Environmental Income and Rural Livelihoods: A Global-Comparative Analysis (2014, background): “…reliance serves as a safety net by preventing poor households from falling into deeper poverty, or whether inferior good characteristics of forest resources keep households trapped in poverty (Angelsen & Wunder, 2003; Barbier, 2010; McSweeney, 2004; Pattanayak & Sills, 2001; Paumgarten, 2005).”
