Resumen
Descripción
This study, by taking Qianjiangyuan National Park Pilot as an example, was to analyze community residents' willingness to accept(WTA) for ecological benefits, and the influencing factors, so as to provide some reference for the future policy. Questionnaire survey was conducted on the spot. Guided by the double-bounded dichotomous contingent valuation method (CVM), this study calculated WTA and analyzed its influencing factors. The estimated WTA is 155.37 yuan RMB per mu per year, which is much higher than the current compensation implemented in this area. Respondents' family characteristics (including the number of household labor force, agroforestry income proportion, location, etc.) are more important and significant in their WTA decision-making. The respondents' cognition towards the National Park also affected their choice of WTA. Most of the respondents agreed that the priority goal of the National Park is "ecological protection", and the preferred WTA of the respondents who have this recognition will also be reduced. However, there are still some community residents who do not know the National Park clearly. Therefore, it is necessary to further strengthen the publicity and education work of the National Park to enhance residents' awareness.
