My argument would be that it's better to reward them than to punish the producers. Each time we've had government come in from outside—and conservancy groups—and tell local people how to manage the environment, it's typically taken about 15 or 20 years to recover from that.
We end up managing it as the ranchers and farmers did in the initial period in order to do a good job of managing it. We've seen that in a couple of big projects in my area in the last 20 years, including the national park.
