Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wildlife farming has conservation and development objectives, but is often controversial. If wild animal populations remain in an open-access state, overharvest is likely. This research analyse goliath butterfly farming in the village Gumi, the largest source, in Papua New Guinea. Butterfly farming entails attracting gravid butterflies to modified habitat and collecting a portion. Interactions between farmers are mediated by their location decision. This interaction is tested indirectly through impacts on harvest levels of other farms. An econometric model incorporating harvest levels, effort and prices is estimated. The results support farmers locating sites far enough apart to eliminate potential interactions. This overcomes any potential open-access problem. This conclusion is strengthened by the absence of regulatory and customary mechanisms to achieve this outcome.

Download or read book Butterflies Wildlife Farming and Open Access written by Brendan Moyle and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open access regimes generate a serious conservation risk to harvested species. Nonetheless, the assumption that open-access applies to cases of wildlife farming is rarely tested whilst often assumed. This assumption merits testing. The birdwing butterfly Ornithoptera priamus is employed as a case to detect the presence of open access with butterfly-farming in Papua New Guinea. One of the rationales for selecting Papua New Guinea was the absence of government enforcement effort to regulate harvest or deter poaching. A fixed-effects panel-data regression using behaviour across eleven provinces was employed. The data set had records of 56,000 harvested butterflies. Open access conditions were not detected. It is posited that the two intermediary organisations purchasing butterflies for export sale did not share the open-access incentive to over-harvest. Further they were able to use their market power to influence the farmers to maintain sustainable practices.

Download or read book Food and Agriculture in Papua New Guinea written by R. Michael Bourke and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2009-08-01 with total page 665 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture dominates the rural economy of Papua New Guinea (PNG). More than five million rural dwellers (80% of the population) earn a living from subsistence agriculture and selling crops in domestic and international markets. Many aspects of agriculture in PNG are described in this data-rich book. Topics include agricultural environments in which crops are grown; production of food crops, cash crops and animals; land use; soils; demography; migration; the macro-economic environment; gender issues; governance of agricultural institutions; and transport. The history of agriculture over the 50 000 years that PNG has been occupied by humans is summarised. Much of the information presented is not readily available within PNG. The book contains results of many new analyses, including a food budget for the entire nation. The text is supported by 165 tables and 215 maps and figures.

This book was released on 2023-04-26 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to present a reality view for Papua New Guinea based on many years of first-hand field work and research accounts. It further assesses sustainability in the light of 47,000 years of a self-sustained type of civilization without bad global impacts. This book contrasts the modern sustainable development failures from the colonial times onwards, as promoted by the ‘western world’, namely Australia, the UK, EU and the U.S as well as Japan and now, China, in times of globalization, Trump’ism and royal governance (Papua New Guinea is still part of the British Dominion and of the Antarctic Treaty etc). This assessment and book is the first of its kind also employing modern data analysis, Landscape Ecology principles (patterns and processes, telecoupling) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with Open Access data focusing on ecological economics, marxism, socialism and contrasting it with current capitalism and neoliberalism that Papua New Guinea is fully exposed to. Throughout the 31 book chapters various aspects are covered how a further insistence on the ‘new’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and so-called Development Aid will result in unwanted side effects and perverse outcomes for Papua New Guinea and for the world in times of wider ‘global change’ and unprecedented man-made crisis.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not everybody cares about the fate of wild animals or the state of the natural environment. I met a lady who said it wouldn't worry her if all the wild animals in the world disappeared overnight. She was a city person~ she said. There are also people who would prefer to let animals become extinct than to have them kept in captivity - no matter how progressive the zoo. There are those who, on principle, will not eat meat, let alone do the killing, and there are those who enjoy nothing so much as shooting birds. People in the last two camps may oppose each other in claiming to be con servationists. Extremists are unlikely to find their opinions being reversed by this book but, because of the scope of the subject, I believe there is a good chance that anybody with an interest in wildlife will find in it something new to think about. It may not be too much to hope that a few disagreements might also be settled because I suspect there is more common ground than is generally realized among those with opposing views.

Download or read book Conservation of Endangered Species in Captivity written by Edward F. Gibbons and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-disciplinary approach to conservation of endangered species in captivity is organized taxonomically and by scientific discipline. The seven taxonomic groups included are invertebrates; fish, reptiles and amphibians, birds, marine mammals, primates, and other mammals. Within each taxonomic group, four scientific disciplines are explored: conservation, reproductive physiology, behavior, and captive design. Conservation chapters summarize the status of the taxonomic group both in the wild and in captivity. Reviewed in the reproductive physiology chapters are anatomy, endocrinology and physiology for females and males of the taxonomic group. In the section on behavior the functions of captive animal research, the methods used, and the problems encountered are discussed. And, in examining captive design the authors provide a general historical outline of the philosophies, trends, and scientific issues for the targeted taxonomic group.
