Sustainable management and use of a medicinal emblematic plant in Chile: Buddleja globosa Hope Phyton
Wilckens,P; Fernández,MP; Gómez,M; Peña,I; Montenegro,G.
Buddleja globosa Hope is a well-known native, medicinal plant because of its digestive and cicatrizing properties. Due to the increasing domestic and international demand, B. globosa abundance and distribution in Chile has resulted in the intensive exploitation of the plant's natural habitat, without consideration of the plant's regenerative capacity. The main objective of this research was to establish the B. globosa growth cycle and model its regeneration cycle. This would allow for more productive, efficient and sustainable use and management of this species, thus ensuring its long-term conservation. We selected two study sites, one wild and another one cultivated. In each one, ten individuals were marked as control treatments, for further observations,...

Public Attitudes to the Use of Wildlife by Aboriginal Australians: Marketing of Wildlife and its Conservation AgEcon
Tisdell, Clement A.; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath.
Attitudes of a sample of the Australian public towards the subsistence use of wildlife by indigenous Australians and whether or not indigenous Australians should be allowed to sell wildlife and wildlife products is examined. It has been suggested that allowing such possibilities would provide economic incentives for nature conservation among local people. We explore whether those sampled believe that indigenous Australians should do more than other groups and institutions to conserve Australia’s tropical species, and whether or not indigenous Australians should be allowed to take common as well as endangered wildlife species for food. Attitudes of the sampled public towards indigenous Australians earning income from trophy hunting and from the harvesting...

Public Support for Sustainable Commercial Harvesting of Wildlife: An Australian Case Study AgEcon
Tisdell, Clement A.; Wilson, Clevo; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath.
This paper surveys a sample of 204 members of the Australian public to determine their attitude to the sustainable commercial harvesting of wildlife generally, and considers their specific support for the sustainable commercial harvesting of each of 24 Australian native species. The general attitude of the sample to wildlife harvesting is related to their attitude to nature conservation. The relationship between respondents’ support for the sustainable commercial harvesting of each of the species and their degree of endangerment based on IUCN Red List rankings is established and found to be an inverse one. Support for the commercial sustainable use of each of the species is compared with the willingness of respondents to pay for their conservation. Support...

Management, Conservation and Farming of Saltwater Crocodiles: An Australian Case Study of Sustainable Commercial Use AgEcon
Tisdell, Clement A.; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath.
Opinions differ about what types of policies are likely to be most effective in conserving wildlife species. For example, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Flora and Fauna (CITES) is based on the premise that curbing the commercial use of endangered species favours their conservation, whereas the Convention on Biological Diversity envisages the possibility that such use may contribute to the conservation of species. In Australia, as illustrated in the case of the saltwater crocodile, the governments of the Northern Territory and Western Australia have favoured the latter policy in recent years whereas Queensland has favoured the former approach. The saltwater crocodile management plan of the Northern Territory provides an...

A DYNAMIC MODEL OF THE U.S. ALLIGATOR INDUSTRY: LESSONS FOR SUSTAINABLE USE AND FARM MANAGEMENT AgEcon
Heykoop, Jerry; Frechette, Darren L..
The American alligator has made a remarkable comeback from the brink of extinction. Commercial alligator production is emerging as an important industry in the South. The industry shows similarities to other livestock industries. This paper draws comparisons with other livestock industries to motivate a structural model of the alligator industry.

Public Valuation of and Attitudes towards the Conservation and Use of the Hawksbill Turtle: An Australian Case Study AgEcon
Tisdell, Clement A.; Swarna Nantha, Hemanath; Wilson, Clevo.
Managing hawksbill turtle populations for use and conservation requires (i) adequate scientific understanding of their population status and dynamics and (ii) consideration of the public’s attitudes to this species. This study employs experimental surveys to assess the Australian public’s attitudes towards the hawksbill turtle, their knowledge of it, their views about its sustainable commercial harvesting, and their support and financial contribution for the species’ conservation. Contingent valuation reveals that the Australian public’s willingness to contribute to the conservation of the hawksbill turtle is high even in comparison to threatened Australian bird and mammal fauna. Most of this stated contribution is based on the intrinsic (non-use) value...

Brazilian assessment on biodiversity and ecosystem services: summary for policy makers Biota Neotropica
Joly,Carlos A.; Scarano,Fabio R.; Bustamante,Mercedes; Gadda,Tatiana Maria Cecy; Metzger,Jean Paul Walter; Seixas,Cristiana Simão; Ometto,Jean Pierre HB; Pires,Aliny Patrícia Flauzino; Boesing,Andrea Larissa; Sousa,Francisco Diogo Rocha; Quintão,José Maurício Brandão; Gonçalves,Leandra Regina; Padgurschi,Maíra de Campos Gorgulho; Aquino,Michely Ferreira dos Santos de; Castro,Paula Felício Drummond de; Santos,Isabela Lima dos.
Abstract: Biodiversity and ecosystems are important elements for addressing national and global socioeconomic and environmental crises, since they provide new development opportunities, for example, as source of job and income creation, and reduction in poverty and socioeconomic inequity. Brazilian biological diversity is also expressed in its immense cultural diversity, with a great variety of knowledge holders. These peoples possess vast knowledge on agrobiodiversity, fishing, fire management, natural medicine, among others of commercial, cultural and spiritual value. The main conclusions of this Summary for Police Makers is that land use changes and climate changes have been - and will continue to be throughout this century - the main drivers that...
