  abstract = {{E}ngagement in the market changes the opportunities and strategies of forest-related peoples. {E}fforts to support rural development need to better understand the potential importance of markets and the way people respond to them. {T}o this end, we compared 61 case studies of the commercial production and trade of nontimber forest products from {A}sia, {A}frica, and {L}atin {A}merica. {T}he results show that product use is shaped by local markets and institutions, resource abundance, and the relative level of development. {L}arger regional patterns are also important. {H}igh-value products tend to be managed intensively by specialized producers and yield substantially higher incomes than those generated by the less specialized producers of less managed, low-value products. {W}e conclude that commercial trade drives a process of intensified production and household specialization among forest peoples.},
