RODRIGUEZ MATOS, Yuris et al. Behavior of the use category of non-timber forest products in Cabinda, Angola. []. , 10, 3, pp. 349-363.   06--2022. ISSN 2310-3469.

Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) are resources used by populations, whose knowledge constitutes the means of subsistence of various rural communities. The objective of this work was to evaluate the behavior of the category of use. The work was carried out in the province of Cabinda, from January 2019 to November 2021, where the following questions were asked: open (they allowed collectors to freely present their considerations and information) and closed (they included possible answers that could be selected by the collectors). These questions were applied to the sellers of these products, where a preliminary test was applied to a sample of 30 individuals, in order to adjust the questionnaire and work through the exposed procedure to social studies, with 100%: 120 people (90 women and 30 men). The ethnobotanical indices were also analyzed: Relative Frequency of Citations (FRC), Use Value (VU) and Sorting Priority. The most cited species as use category were: Glycyrrhiza glabras, Zingiber officinale and Pausinystalia macroceras.
