Abstract

Sustainable forest management can play a vital role in building resilient economies and communities that can withstand pandemics, climate change, and other global challenges. Through a comprehensive analysis of local communities surrounding protected areas, we examine the extent of forest reliance for livelihoods and identify key drivers behind changes in forest-resource use during the pre-pandemic in 2019 and post-pandemic in 2022. The study's findings reveal a noteworthy increase in the proportion of land utilized for livelihood activities, especially for production forests, in study sites between 2019 and 2022. Local communities still heavily rely on forest resources for their livelihoods, with a significant increase in household income derived from forest-based activities between 2019 and 2022, approximately 112.1%, 28.7%, and 1.68% for Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, respectively. Additionally, the study highlights an upsurge in forest dependence during the pandemic period, emphasizing the importance of forests in safeguarding the economies of forest-dependent communities. Findings also shed light on the determinants of forest dependence changes amid the pandemic, including income from forests, poverty status, minority group status, and receipt of COVID-19 relief. These results provide valuable insights into the relationship between forest resources and rural livelihoods for promoting sustainable forest management and safeguarding the well-being of local communities in the face of future challenges.

Abstract

Despite growing interest in sustainable agriculture, the impact of organic fertilizer adoption on household welfare in Vietnamese rice production remained underexplored. This study addressed this knowledge gap by examining its effect on productivity, total output, revenue, assets, and food security (household food diversity index and food expenditure). The data originated from the Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey (VHLSS) conducted in 2020. After merging data from VHLSS, 2,059 observations in rice production were employed to unveil the relationship between variables. To mitigate selection bias, propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized to assess the average treatment effect on the treated population. The results uncovered that households utilizing organic fertilizers exhibited a superior food diversity index and greater food expenditure but lower productivity and total assets than their counterparts. These findings underscored the necessity of enhancing organic fertilizer utilization in rice farming, facilitating food security in rice production in rural Vietnam. Accordingly, smallholders should be encouraged to utilize organic fertilizers, and the government should assist farmers by providing training and enhancing their expertise in applying organic fertilizers.
