China has responded to some of its ecological challenges with an ambitious reforestation project called the Grain to Green Program (GTGP), which pays farmers to plant trees on steeply sloping cropland. This is one of many payment for ecosystem services (PES) programs throughout the world that acknowledge landholders as providers of environmental benefits and compensate them for managing land in a prescribed way. While GTGP and other PES programs have produced measurable land cover changes and contributed directly to many families' incomes, policy analyses tend to neglect these programs' more complex, indirect effects. PES intercedes in complex webs of human-environment interactions as people adopt new norms and face new challenges and opportunities for their livelihoods. This study aims to demonstrate how households' motivation to enroll in PES goes beyond straightforward microeconomic calculations, its potentially permanent impacts on livelihood strategies and land use, and how unintended ecological effects may hamper or enhance land change goals. First, it will demonstrate how social norms, demographics, and other characteristics impact the decision to enroll, and how this knowledge may be used to improve financial and administrative efficiency. Second, it will explore how PES funnels farmers into different sectors of the off-farm labor market and how these transitions affect the permanence of PES-initiated land cover changes. Third, it will investigate how changes in land cover may contribute to a growing wild boar population and the burden of crop raiding, and how this burden may influence land use and cooperation with GTGP long-term. These findings will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of how PES impacts people and their environment both directly and indirectly, and how people's reactions to these changes impact the success of PES itself.
