摘要

牦牛放牧这一以市场为基础的传统正在逐渐消失。气候变化、政策背景和社会经济变化等不断变化的环境不利于牦牛放牧。本研究采用选择实验调查法,确定了牦牛牧民对改善尼泊尔坎钦贡嘎地貌牦牛放牧的偏好。选择反应分析的结果表明,牦牛牧民更倾向于通过改善牧场管理、基础设施以及健康和安全服务来改善牦牛放牧。牧民对牦牛保险(6.82 美元/牦牛)、牧场改良牧草品种(6.71 美元/牦牛)、改善医疗服务(5.68 美元/牦牛)、允许控制焚烧(4.72 美元/牦牛)和永久性棚舍结构(4.39 美元/牦牛)的偏好较高。此外,该分析表明,需要制定允许控制燃烧的政策,以改善牧场状况,这有助于减少灌木的侵占。同样,还需要进一步探索适当的牦牛保险机制,让所有牦牛牧民参与进来,降低他们的风险。

Herders’ Preferences for Maintaining Yak Herding in the Eastern Himalayas

Yak herding, a market-based tradition, is vanishing gradually. The changing environment such as climate change, policy context, and socioeconomic change is not in favor of yak herding. Using a choice experiment survey approach, this study determines the yak herders’ preferences to improve yak herding in Kanchenjunga Landscape, Nepal. The results of the choice response analysis indicate that yak herders prefer to improve yak herding by improving rangeland management, infrastructure, and health and safety services. Herders have a high preference for yak insurance (US dollar [USD] 6.82/yak), followed by cultivating an improved variety of grass in rangeland (USD 6.71/yak), improved health services (USD 5.68/yak), allowing controlled burning (USD 4.72/yak), and permanent structure of shed (USD 4.39/yak). Additionally, this analysis suggests that a policy is required to allow controlled burning to improve the condition of rangeland, which can contribute to reducing the encroachment of shrubs. Similarly, there is also a need to further explore the appropriate insurance mechanism for yaks to involve all yak herders and reduce their risk.

期刊介绍: Rangeland Ecology & Management publishes all topics-including ecology, management, socioeconomic and policy-pertaining to global rangelands. The journal''s mission is to inform academics, ecosystem managers and policy makers of science-based information to promote sound rangeland stewardship. Author submissions are published in five manuscript categories: original research papers, high-profile forum topics, concept syntheses, as well as research and technical notes. Rangelands represent approximately 50% of the Earth''s land area and provision multiple ecosystem services for large human populations. This expansive and diverse land area functions as coupled human-ecological systems. Knowledge of both social and biophysical system components and their interactions represent the foundation for informed rangeland stewardship. Rangeland Ecology & Management uniquely integrates information from multiple system components to address current and pending challenges confronting global rangelands.
