摘要：The metropolitan area of the Valley of México is facing problems due to the damage of its natural resources and the consequent damage to the environment. Eastward of this zone, the Ixtapaluca municipality in the State of Mexico, is of growing importance because it has the largest forest area in this zone. Unfortunately, this area has been reduced by fire, pests, changes in land use, extensive grazing and indiscriminate clandestine lumbering. This tendency is a threat for the zone because constant population growth and urban activity are generating a severe imbalance between these and the natural resources. In this context, the present study was conducted to investigate whether the population of eastern State of Mexico recognizes the economic value of the environmental services of the forest resource, and to estimate the economic value of these services. The methodology used was the contingent valuation method, which uses information gathered directly from the population to obtain the economic valuation of these services. The results show that the population recognizes the economic value of the environmental services of the forest; preferences were obtained for each of these, where combating air pollution was the most important, followed by conservation of flora, fauna, and soil. An approximate monetary value of $36,852,900.00 (mexican pesos) was estimated for the environmental services, thus providing information to design conservation guidelines.
