Attitudes to restoring an extinct keystone species
In this paper, we study attitudes in Sweden to bringing back an extinct species, the aurochs ( Bos primigenius ), which once played an important role in European forest ecosystems. This is done using a willingness-to-pay approach, and examining whether willingness to pay for restoring the aurochs is related to the restoration technology (breeding programme or gene editing programme) adopted. Attitudes to de-extinction vary significantly across in…
Economics of the Swedish small-scale Baltic fishery
Swedish small-scale fishing has undergone significant changes over time. There are examples of small-scale fishers who have diversified their activities by developing new sales channels or by processing a large part of their products themselves. However, this type of activity is significantly less well-documented than the fishing itself. In this paper, we examine how the catches of the Swedish small-scale Baltic fishery are used after landing, wh…
Public acceptance of policies to reduce forest loss
While environmental policy acceptance has been extensively studied in OECD contexts, comparative evidence on how different forest policy instruments are perceived across low- and middle-income countries remains limited, particularly regarding the interaction between individual attitudes and national governance conditions. This study addresses this gap by analyzing stated support of four policies aimed at reducing forest loss across five East Afri…
Farming behaviour and perceived livelihood improvement in natural gas exploitation areas of sub-Saharan Africa
The economic development opportunities linked to natural gas exploitation could benefit households in the areas where exploitation takes place, but the effects of exploitation will work through multiple channels, making overall impacts specific to local conditions. This study contributes to the literature by examining perceived livelihood improvements and changes in farming linked to natural gas exploitation in the Lindi and Mtwara regions of Tan…
The linkage between forests and household food security
Many rural poor forest dependents are exposed to food insecurity. • Quantitative studies on forest-food security linkage are scanty. • Risk-averse households prefer to participate in forest activities. • Household forest participants were less food secure than the non-participants. • Participation in forest activities leads to poverty trap. Many rural forest dependents are still poor and exposed to food insecurity. Hence, this paper aims to study…
Forest dependence in Tanzania
Great hopes have been placed on devolution policies as a means of attaining sustainable forest management in developing countries. However, heavy dependence on forests by many rural households has led to forest degradation and deforestation, which undermine the success of such policies. This study contributes to the existing literature by exploring factors affecting perceived forest dependence and by introducing private forest ownership, i.e., fo…

Agricultural production diversity, dietary diversity and nutritional status
Weak support for weak sustainability
Push–pull farming system in Kenya
This study examines the farm-level economic benefits and aggregate welfare impacts of adopting push–pull technology (PPT)—an innovative, integrated pest and soil-fertility management strategy—with a set of household- and plot-level data collected in western Kenya. The evaluation is based on a combination of econometric and economic surplus analysis. Treatment effect estimates are used to assess the technology-induced shift in the maize supply cur…
Whereto with institutions and governance challenges in African wildlife conservation
African wildlife conservation has been transformed, shifting from a traditional, state-managed government approach to a broader governance approach with a wide range of actors designing and implementing wildlife policy. The most widely popularized approach has been that of community-managed nature conservancies. The knowledge of how institutions function in relation to humans and their use of the environment is critical to the design and implemen…
What Determines Gender Inequality in Household Food Security in Kenya? Application of Exogenous Switching Treatment Regression
The Persistence of Subjective Poverty in Urban Ethiopia
Is urbanization contributing to higher food prices
Urbanization has been mentioned as one possible cause of higher food prices, and in this paper we examine some of the suggested links between urbanization and food prices. We conclude that urbanization, conventionally defined as the increasing share of the population living in urban settlements, is being conflated with related but separate processes, such as economic growth, population growth and environmental degradation. We discuss factors that…
