Abstract

The analysis of determinants of natural resources dependence in the communities surrounding the protection area is significant to reduce the local communities interference on biodiversity conservation. Data were collected in April and August of 2012. Tobit model, Logit model, and OLS model were established to estimate the communities residents income dependence on the natural resources; and Logit model was used to estimate the communities residents non-income dependence. The results indicated that non-agricultural employment was an important livelihood substitute strategy for the collection of commercial non-wood forest resources. When there were more abundant resources, the farmer households would have higher income dependence on resources. The altitude had a positive effect on the farmer households income dependence on resources; households economic conditions had no significant effect, but households debt had a positive effect. The estimation of farmer households non-income resources dependence model further testified the stability and the conclusions of income resource dependence model. ［Ch, 4 tab. 17 ref.］
