Abstract

The production of non-timber forest products production is not only the main way to protect forest resources but also an important way to develop the economy and increase farmers income. Based on the survey data of 155 farmer households in 6 villages in Linan City and Xianju County，Zhejiang Province，the regression model was set up to analyze the affecting factors of farmer households total income. The results indicated that the total production of non-timber forest products （NTFP） had significant positive impact on farmer households total income；the number of labors within the households，the production area of NTFP and whether the family members participated in the relevant trainings had a relatively significant positive impact on farmers total income；the time of family members engaged in NTFP production had a generally significant negative impact on farmer households total income. Farmers incomes from the non-timber forest products were mainly dependent on their yields. The roles of various organizations should be fully exerted to increase the yields and improve the standard production and customization of non-timber forest products，consequently increasing the added values of the products and farmer households income. ［Ch，5 tab. 8 ref.］
