The U Minh Ha national park

This paper investigates the direct use values of melaleuca forests at U Minh Ha National Park. The market price method (MPM) was utilised to estimate the economic value. A semi-structured questionnaire comprising multiple-choice and open-ended questions was administered to 360 families in 2022 to collect data on the various forest products available locally, the quantity of these products collected, as well as their corresponding prices and costs.

Mangrove ecosystems provide a wide range of both direct and indirect use values to coastal communities in developing countries. The full value of mangrove products and services is not yet recognized and is therefore often ignored in development planning. As a result, decisions are made which favour commercial developments over mangrove conservation. The direct use value for U Minh Ha mangrove forest is not well understood but is considered to be high and important to about 80% of the local people in the area.
