Pricing Irrigation Water in Mexico: Efficiency, Equity and Revenue Considerations
The withdrawal of water for i r r igat ion in the d ryer regions of Mexico already accounts for some 91% of potential availabil i ty. Fur ther expansion of i r r igated acreage, therefore, must re ly more on increased water use efficiency ra ther than increased supply from engineering works. A pr ime ins t rument to br ing about such an improvement could be an appropriate water pr ic ing s t ru...
متن کاملImpact of Subsidy Policy on the Drip Irrigation Systems under Non-Volumetric and Volumetric Water Allocation in the Najafabad Aquifer
This study determines the amount of irrigation water saved as a result of the subsidy policy to adapt from flood to drip irrigation. We developed a positive mathematical programming model (PMP) to evaluate the effect of economic incentives on farmers’ decisions to choose the type of irrigation technology, cropping pattern, and "water use" and "water consumption" in rural Garkan Shomali district...
متن کاملSpatial Hedonic Pricing Models for the Valuation of Irrigation Water
The main objective of this work is to apply the hedonic pricing method using the methodology of spatial econometrics in order to assess the economic value of irrigation water, as one of the individual attributes of the value of agricultural land parcels. Most of the agricultural land’s value attributes, like neighbor characteristics as well as the availability of irrigation water, exhibit a spa...
متن کاملIrrigation Water Pricing: Differential Impacts on Irrigated Farms
European water policy, as set out in the Water Framework Directive (WFD), requires all EU Member States to implement volumetric water pricing at rates that roughly cover the total costs of providing water services. The objective of this paper is to develop a methodology that, for the different farmtypes in an irrigable area, will enable us to analyse the differential impact that a pricing polic...
متن کاملIrrigation Water Pricing in Iran: The Gap between Theory and Practice
Pricing policies play an important role in water demand management and its optimal allocation. Determining proper water price leads to optimal allocation of water especially in agricultural consumptions. Applying new subsidy targeting law in Iran which insists on pricing water based on its supply cost, will effects considerably on water resource management in agriculture sector. So, in this stu...
