Public Benefits, Private Benefits, and Policy Mechanism Choice for Land-Use Change for Environmental Benefits
研究了鼓励环境友好型土地利用变化的政策机制选择,指出应根据私人净收益和公共净收益的相对水平,针对不同项目精准使用正向激励、负向激励、技术推广或不干预。
<i>The choice of policy mechanisms for encouraging environmentally beneficial land-use change should depend on the relative levels of private (or internal) net benefits, and public (or external) net benefits. A map of recommended policy mechanisms is developed, depending on the relative levels of these variables. Positive incentives, negative incentives, and extension need to be targeted carefully to appropriate projects—where private net benefits are closer to zero, and/or public net benefits are more extremely positive or negative. Technology development is suggested where private net costs outweigh public net benefits. No action is recommended for many potential projects</i>.
