摘要

农场的树木不仅提供农业和环境效益,还有助于粮食安全。我们使用世界银行“生活水平衡量研究”(LSMS)中覆盖10年的面板数据来检验农场树木对马拉维农村人们饮食质量的影响。我们发现,在农场种植树木会导致更高、更多样化的水果和蔬菜消费。具体来说,在农场种植树木的家庭(或在10年期间获得树木的家庭)与没有树木的家庭相比,蔬菜消费量增加了3%。此外,在研究期间,每增加一个家庭拥有或获得的树种,水果消费量增加5%。这些结果表明,农场树木可能在实现营养、保护和减缓气候变化目标方面发挥作用,对低收入和中等收入国家的可持续发展战略具有重要意义。

Trees on farms improve dietary quality in rural Malawi

Trees on farms improve dietary quality in rural Malawi

Trees on farms not only provide agricultural and environmental benefits but can also contribute to food security. We use panel data covering a 10-year period from the World Bank's Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS) to examine the effects of trees on farms on people's dietary quality in rural Malawi. We found that having on-farm trees leads to higher and more diverse fruit and vegetable consumption. Specifically, households who had trees on their farm (or who acquired trees during the 10-year period) exhibited a 3% increase in vegetable consumption compared to households without trees. Moreover, for every additional tree species owned or acquired by a household during the study period, fruit consumption increased by 5%. These results demonstrate that trees on farms may play a role in meeting nutrition, conservation, and climate change mitigation goals, with important implications for sustainable development strategies in low- and middle-income countries.

期刊介绍: Conservation Letters is a reputable scientific journal that is devoted to the publication of both empirical and theoretical research that has important implications for the conservation of biological diversity. The journal warmly invites submissions from various disciplines within the biological and social sciences, with a particular interest in interdisciplinary work. The primary aim is to advance both pragmatic conservation objectives and scientific knowledge. Manuscripts are subject to a rapid communication schedule, therefore they should address current and relevant topics. Research articles should effectively communicate the significance of their findings in relation to conservation policy and practice.
