Summary: This study assessed the existing natural resources in Sogod Bay, Southern Leyte, Philippines, and determined how their quality has been affected by the economic activities in the area. Soil physical analysis revealed that some nutrients in the study sites are deficient, particularly phosphorus. A diverse species of mangroves and macroinvertebrates can be found at the study sites. Those with MPAs have good coral covers and high life form diversity indices, while the opposite was observed in non-MPA sites. However, there were also non-MPA sites that exhibited good coral covers and rich species diversity. Results also showed that the natural resources in Sogod Bay are no longer as productive as before due to the decreased quality of these resources. Based on survey results, most households are less dependent on fishery and farming as livelihood sources; most households had nonfarm income sources, which are the largest contributors to household income. Meanwhile, the valuation results indicate that the values of the provisioning services of these ecosystems are higher in sites with MPA and in farms with adequate nutrients and proper cultivation. Hence, this study recommends establishing marine sanctuaries and improving land productivity to restore the marine and terrestrial ecosystems in Sogod Bay.

Summary: This research was motivated by the weak enforcement of the conditions of the policy on contracting mangrove forest management out to households. Under this policy, households are assigned stewardship of mangrove forests and are allowed to convert part of the forest into other uses, mostly shrimp farming. Because of weak enforcement, households actually convert more than the allowable level of 40 percent in order to seek higher profits. A survey was conducted among 278 shrimp farms from the eight communes in the south of Vietnam. Using production and profit functions, our analysis shows that mangrove density has no impact on shrimp farming but mangrove coverage affects productivity and profitability of shrimp farming at the optimal mangrove coverage of approximately 60 percent. Particularly, we found that too high mangrove coverage will result in lower output level and profit. However, coverage levels less than 60–70 percent have small impacts, which implies that farmers should not convert more than 30–40 percent. This implies that maintaining the level of mangrove coverage at 60 percent does not only comply with policy, but also brings about the highest level of output and profit for shrimp farmers.

Summay: This study evaluated the impact of Coral Reef Rehabilitation and Management Program II (COREMAP II) on people’s welfare. It found that the program has helped increase the income of fishing families. The program has also helped diversify fishers’ income sources, has helped them to understand the importance of marine conservation, and has encouraged them to participate in local conservation action. COREMAP II has also significantly improved marine biodiversity. The study recommends that the next phase of the program (COREMAP III) should be given the government’s full support and suggests some ways in which it can be strengthened.

Summary: This study assessed the impacts of marine protected areas (MPAs) on the welfare of fishing families. The study found that MPAs had improved the composition of fish catches and the size and diversity of fish. However, it also found that MPAs had not had a significant impact on local people’s income and livelihood. The study assesses why this is the case and makes recommendations for policies that would help maximize the local economic benefits of the MPA.
