Economic Evaluation of Pollination Services Comparing Coffee Landscapes in Ecuador and Indonesia

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed an economic evaluation of coffee pollination by bees in two distinct tropical regions: an area of low human impact with forests neighboring agroforestry in Indonesia and an area with little remaining forest in Ecuador, where coffee yields depend on forests to provide nesting sites for bees.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secondary forests as temporary carbon sinks? The economic impact of accounting methods on reforestation projects in the tropics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied the accounting rules for temporary and long-term certified emission reduction (CER) to two reforestation projects: forest plantations and natural regrowth of secondary forest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimizing joint production of timber and carbon sequestration of afforestation projects

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of a joint production of timber and carbon sequestration on the optimal rotation of a fast-growing species in north-western Ecuador, comparing different optimization approaches and taking the latest developments of the Kyoto Protocol into account was determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Economic valuation of land restoration: The case of exclosures established on communal grazing lands in Tigray, Ethiopia

TL;DR: In this paper, the economic value of converting degraded grazing lands into exclosures is estimated and assessed in the highlands of Tigray, Ethiopia, using a soil and vegetation study with a socioeconomic survey, and a financial analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conservation Payments under Risk: A Stochastic Dominance Approach

TL;DR: In this paper, marginal conditional stochastic dominance rules are used to derive conditions for determining the conservation payments required to guarantee that the environmentally preferred land use dominates, and an empirical application to shaded coffee protection in the biologically important Choco region of West Ecuador is presented.
