摘要：Most common property resource (CPR) collection in developing countries occurs in imperfectmarket environments, in which endogenous prices link the economic returns in non-resourceactivities (i.e., agriculture) with effort supplied to CPR collection. A model of an imperfectlyintegrated rural household demonstrates the theoretically ambiguous connection betweenagricultural productivity and resource collection. Using unique panel data from rural Mexico,we find evidence that households with higher agricultural efficiency supply less labor to CPRcollection. Interventions that raise agricultural productivity thus may complement resourceconservation efforts.
