摘要：

This paper examines whether Grassland Ecological Compensation Policy (GECP), one of the few pastorally focused payment-for-ecosystem-services (PES) program with large investment and long duration, has accomplished its dual goals to improve grassland quality and increase herder income. Through an analysis of remote sensing and household survey data, this study finds that, although GECP improves grassland quality (albeit to only a small extent) and has a large positive effect on income, the program exacerbates existing income inequality among herders within their local communities. As a result of the program, herders reduced livestock production. However, further increasing payment standard without augmenting other aspects of implementation would not reduce livestock production, but would encourage herders to enlarge farm size by renting in grassland and increase supplementary feedings as responses. Heterogeneity analyses emphasize the importance of suiting flexible and bottom-up implementations to local circumstances.
