Innovative ways for conserving the
ecological services of bushmeat, ATBC
2014, Cairns, Australia
Outline
• Rational of the study
• Presentation of the methodological aspects
• Results
• Issus for discussion
Innovative ways for conserving the
ecological services provided by bushmeat,
ATBC 2014, Cairns, Australia
Rational of the study (I)
• Contribute to the debate on the economic value of
ecosystem services provided by tropical forest
– Role of bush meat as part of ecological process (regulating
services)
– Bush meat as a contributor to human well-being (provisioning
services).
• Bring some insights on the economic role of bush meat
(provisioning services, market organisation, economic
growth)
• Provide the basis for good management practices
Innovative ways for conserving the
ecological services provided by bushmeat,
ATBC 2014, Cairns, Australia
Methodological aspects: Main
questions (III)
• What is the total production of bush meat in the study area?
• What is the contribution of self-consumption of bush meat?
• What is the contribution of (illegal) trade of wild meat at the regional level?
• What is the net profit from the illegal trade at the regional and at the individual
level?
• What are the main factors of wealth generation in the region?

Discussion
• Wild meat has a direct contribution to poverty
alleviation
– Self-consumption
– Trade
• Wild meat has a direct contribution to wealth
generation (income and investments) – Feed equally
the shadow economy and the formal economy
• Economic rent = cost of the externalities
• Cost of illegality: high in Brazil, unseen in Peru and
Colombia But need to be assessed.

Economic value of bush meat and poverty alleviation in the Amazonian region

  • 1. Economic value of bush meat and poverty alleviation in the Amazonian region Sarah Hernandez, PhD., Pierre Rialland Maria Paula Quiceno, Daniel Cruz Nathalie Van Vliet, Robert Nasi Innovative ways for conserving the ecological services of bushmeat, ATBC 2014, Cairns, Australia
  • 2. Outline • Rational of the study • Presentation of the methodological aspects • Results • Issus for discussion Innovative ways for conserving the ecological services provided by bushmeat, ATBC 2014, Cairns, Australia
  • 3. Rational of the study (I) • Contribute to the debate on the economic value of ecosystem services provided by tropical forest – Role of bush meat as part of ecological process (regulating services) – Bush meat as a contributor to human well-being (provisioning services). • Bring some insights on the economic role of bush meat (provisioning services, market organisation, economic growth) • Provide the basis for good management practices Innovative ways for conserving the ecological services provided by bushmeat, ATBC 2014, Cairns, Australia
  • 4. Methodological aspects: Main questions (III) • What is the total production of bush meat in the study area? • What is the contribution of self-consumption of bush meat? • What is the contribution of (illegal) trade of wild meat at the regional level? • What is the net profit from the illegal trade at the regional and at the individual level? • What are the main factors of wealth generation in the region?

  • 13. Discussion • Wild meat has a direct contribution to poverty alleviation – Self-consumption – Trade • Wild meat has a direct contribution to wealth generation (income and investments) – Feed equally the shadow economy and the formal economy • Economic rent = cost of the externalities • Cost of illegality: high in Brazil, unseen in Peru and Colombia But need to be assessed.
