Costa Rica has long been a leader among developing countries in the design of and experimentation with innovative environmental Programs. Since 1997, Costa Rica's Pagos de Servicios Ambientales (Payments for Environmental Services) Program has provided payments to more than 4,400 farmers and forest owners for reforestation, forest conservation, and sustainable forest management activities. Econometric analysis of a survey. of farmers and forest owners, including both PSA participants and nonparticipants, shows that farm size, human capital and household economic factors, and information variables significantly influence participation in PSA program alternatives. Large farmers and forest owners are disproportionately represented among program participants. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
