英文文献摘要：
The relationship between poverty and natural resources is complex and the empirical evidence to date, mostly from studies of forest activities and poverty, is inconclusive. The main purpose of this paper is to empirically identify the effects of household characteristics and of inequality at the village level on natural resource extraction and dependence. To do so we use data from the Mexico National Rural Household Survey (ENHRUM). Our results show that in rural Mexico natural resource extraction is predominantly an activity carried out by poor households. The same is true for dependence. We also show that there are important differences across Mexico in terms of both participation and dependence on resource income. These differences are most evident when one compares the south and north of the country. We also show that when relatively rich households participate in resource extraction their natural resource income is considerably higher than that of the poor.

贫穷和自然资源之间的关系是复杂的，迄今的经验证据，大部分来自对森林活动和贫穷的研究，是没有结论性的。本文的主要目的是通过实证来确定家庭特征和村一级的不平等对自然资源开采和依赖的影响。为此，我们使用了墨西哥国家农村家庭调查(ENHRUM)的数据。我们的结果显示，在墨西哥农村，自然资源的开采主要是由贫困家庭进行的。依赖性也是如此。我们还表明，在参与和对资源收入的依赖方面，墨西哥各地存在着重要的差异。当你比较这个国家的南部和北部时，这些差异最明显。我们还表明，当相对富裕的家庭参与资源开采时，他们的自然资源收入比穷人高得多。
