亲环境的农业对农民来说是否利润较低？孟加拉综合虫害管理的证据 (英语)
对传统农业可持续性的关切促使人们广泛引进了综合虫害管理法（IPM），即一种用生态手段控制害虫和杂草的方法。IPM的目的是用自然界中的寄生生物和捕食生物来控制害虫的数量，以减少化学杀虫剂造成的生态和健康损害。由于化学杀虫剂对贫困农民来说十分昂贵，IPM提供了一个降低生产成本和提高利润的机会。然而，如果IPM还有可能降低总生产率或需要更多地使用其它生产要素的话，那么采用IPM就可能会降低利润率。另外，IPM实际上可能可以通过鼓励用技术含量更高的方法使用现有资源，推动农业产量的提高。由于数据不足，一直不能充分解释IPM对收益率、健康和当地生态系统的影响。Dasgupta、Meisner和Wheeler试图用新的调查数据揭示IPM对孟加拉稻农的影响。他们用投入-损耗会计法、传统生产函数和边界生产估计法比较了采用IPM方法和传统技术进行农业生产的结果。他们得出的所有结果都表明，采用IPM方法和采用传统耕作法种植水稻，没有明显的生产率差异。由于IPM方法既可以降低杀虫剂成本又不会降低生产率，它似乎比其它传统水稻耕作法更有利可图。访问调查结果还表明，IPM方法可以带来明显的健康和生态收益。然而，外部效应问题使农民难于单独采用IPM方法。如果不集体采用这种方法，继续使用化学杀虫剂消灭害虫的邻居也会消灭有益的寄生生物和捕食生
