El potencial hídrico que representa
el Parque Nacional Nevado de Toluca se ha
visto disminuido por numerosos impactos
antrópicos, lo que exige crear estrategias para su
conservación. Este estudio tiene como objetivo
estimar la disposición a pagar haciendo una
encuesta en una muestra de usuarios del Valle

que no estarían dispuestos a contribuir, pero
realizarían acciones enfocadas al cuidado del

Nevado de Toluca National
Park is an area of vital importance from the
hydrological point of view, since it is one of
the recharge areas to the aquifer that supplies
to the inhabitants of the Toluca Valley and
part of Mexico City. Its water potential has
been diminished by numerous anthropogenic
impacts. We need to search for tools in order
to address this problem. The purpose of this
study is to estimate the willingness to pay from
a sample of users in the Toluca Valley as part
of a program of hydrological ecosystem service
payment. The results show that the percentage
of users willing to contribute surpass 50%, with
amounts ranging between 30 and 80 pesos per
person per month, but there is a sector of the
respondents who would not contribute in cash,
but are willing to carry out actions focused in
the environmental care.... view less
