The paper deals with the measurement of benefits provided by natural resources, particular reference to tourist development mountain areas. In fact, possibility measuring some produced resources allows appropriate strategies be formulated. second part presents possible solutions suggested for sustainable tourism in an area Pre-Alps between Veneto and Trentino. These are a result research carried out using contingent valuation method. Critical information was gathered that enabled adjustment...
- Experiences of short food supply chain: an explorative research in the province Trento In recent years there has been increasing interest scientific literature for so-called "Alternative Food Networks" which try to redefine relationship between producers and consumers. Particularly interesting is chain allows both get back some added value consumers have better "with farmers' face on it". Moreover, part stressed that a shorter promotes rise new more territorially based rural development....
Forest ecosystems produce environmental services from which individuals benefit. In recent decades, interest in these has significantly increased to meet the demand for new products and related landscape use recreational activities. These are defined as Non-Wood Products Services (NWFP&Ss). There is possibility, certain cases need, introduce a system of payment NWFP&Ss. However, transformation forest goods into commercial not straightforward process. This paper reviews number successful...
The ways in which forests have been used and managed by man modified substantially over time relation to both changes the economic social needs of communities visions world that these embraced. In recent times, as regards flows utility guaranteed forests, increasing interest has focused on recreational aspects landscape. Such derives from importance, highlighted numerous studies, this aspect its connection with tourism. latter phenomenon is undergoing strong growth able trigger important...
The promotion of sustainable tourism models has been widely debated; many pages have devoted to the attempt provide subject with a strong theoretical base and coherent structure. This said, it is still case that, although such frameworks are crucial for development appropriate planning policy instruments, their actual implementation continue be fraught difficulties. These problems exacerbated when entails opportunities which require support local community management natural resources...
Abstract The idea that landscape fulfils many different functions and provides multiple benefits for human society is gaining strength. This new vision of changes both, the interests needs persons involved use management itself. objective this paper to study conservation in a particular mountainous area Italy, which requires an institutional, non-generic approach. Using contingent valuation method, we investigated whether there relationship between experts’ casual observers’ evaluations ten...
Abstract The landscape fulfils many different functions and provides multiple benefits in terms of goods services for human society. For this reason, it must be conserved its diversity, complexity functionality. aim paper is to identify which conditions have developed transform the environmental features a particular area into source income local population, thus set basis conserving natural capital by means management process. This opportunity results from change willingness pay (WTP)...
In a double-blind multicenter study versus placebo, the therapeutic effects of ambroxol (10 mg/kg, i.v. twice daily for 7 days) were studied in an appropriately selected population with severe respiratory failure. Treatment was given to 28 neonates birth weight ≤ 2,000 g, appropriate gestational age idiopathic distress such severity as require assisted ventilation (IMV or IPPV) within 12 h birth. The preliminary results showed that treatment, and not increased survival, reduced time during...
This study investigates how Pesticide Risk Indicators (PRIs) can be applied to help develop sound economic policies. We modified one of the numerous PRIs proposed over years, Environmental Impact Quotient (EIQ), originally developed for fruit industry, consider co-formulants and adjuvants. The new formula includes three components representing externalities farm worker risk, consumer ecological risk. It also considers potential use pesticides on residents living near farms where these...
This article highlights the potential for collecting and processing territorial data in order to facilitate planning programming that respond real local problems include political regulatory framework force. A case study is explored involves joint use of two databases with institutional functions: Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) National Information System Water Management Agriculture (SIGRIAN). Both are managed by Council Agricultural Research Economics (CREA). Those were used...
In the Alps as in many mountain areas, livestock farming has constituted an important source of income, especially since Middle Ages. The importance within Alpine economy changed over time due to dynamics supply and demand combined with evolving environmental, technological institutional constraints. This paper focuses on latter aspect attempts reconstruct how relative production factors land, labour capital throughout nineteenth twentieth centuries a mountainous area eastern Trentino....
Upland population levels are strongly correlated to environmental dynamics such as morphology, exposure and climate. A temperature fall leads a shortening of the plant growth season, which can lead lower pasture productivity thus livestock spend shorter periods in mountains. The aim this research is correlate natural climate constraints with variation grasslands value selection pastures located between 1100 1800 m Pasubio Massif (Italian Southern Alps, Trento). correlation trend (derived...
The increasing importance of the carbon sequestration issue calls researchers to investigate if agri-environmental support (AES) extensive mountain grazing granted under Regulations 2078/92, 1257/99 and 1698/2005 is still efficient. AES may have contributed maintenance low stocks in areas, which might otherwise been abandoned revegetated by species that assist sequestration. We evaluate benefits costs supporting pastureland through cattle an Italian Alpine pasture for 2004. focus on three...
