“…To preserve them, much effort has gone into setting up and managing a network of protected areas because, for various constituencies, conservation is best served by outright protection (Bowles et al 1998), occasionally after initial extraction of valuable species (Rice et al 1997). Others, however, see this as an ultimately limited option (Wood 1995, Lugo 1999, Pearce et al 2003, Gardner et al 2009). They argue the need to include sustainable forest management, balancing productivity and offtake with efforts to conserve biodiversity, maintain vital forest functions, and continue supplying various social and economic benefits, across various scales.…”

“…It was assumed the adoption of SFM could improve the economic benefits from forests and decrease the pressures from alternative land uses that resulted in forest conversion [51]. Reduced impact logging (RIL) techniques were expected to increase logging productivity and improved species inventory linked to harvesting and plans to diversify extraction of the lesser-known species [52].…”

“…En muchos lugares en los que se realizan actividades de tala, los beneficios y los costos por lo general no corresponden a los mismos individuos. Si bien la TIR puede proporcionar beneficios, entre ellos una fuente sostenida de madera, y por lo tanto ingresos, es incierto en qué medida puede verse contrarrestada por la reducción de los valores de los PFNM, tanto debido al desconocimiento del impacto ecológico (Barreto et al 1998;Pearce et al 2003;) como a las características institucionales o socioeconómicas típicas de algunas de estas ubicaciones. Para rectificar estas incongruencias con respecto a las especies de valor elevado, será necesario mejorar la comunicación y la colaboración entre los organismos responsables de las políticas nacionales e internacionales y luego aplicar dichas políticas en el ámbito local.…”
