Predicted economic effects of environmental quality control policies on linear firm models and an application to an irrigated farm model

Creator:: Clark, Richard T.
Abstract:: Linear economic models were utilized to predict effects of various environmental control policies on individual firms. Four different linear models were specified and in some instances relatively minor changes in specification were made which resulted in additional sub-models. Models varied as to numbers and types of fixed factors, variable cost...

Computer simulation of irrigation system improvements : an analysis of income, risk and offsite impacts

Creator:: Taylor, Michael L. (Michael Lester), 1960-
Abstract:: Policy analysts designing programs to improve the efficiency and expand the use of water in the irrigation of farm lands often enlist benefit-cost analysis as a means of assessing impacts and feasibility. While on-site comparisons of costs and benefits are important factors in project assessment, other dimensions such as risk,...

Economic optimization of irrigation

Creator:: English, Marshall J., Nelson, A. Gene, Nakamura, Brian C., Nielsen, Kim C., and Nuss, Gary S.
Abstract:: The research effort described in this report explores the whole question of optimization of irrigation system design, planning and operations. Optimum irrigation practices, in theory, may involve some degree of deficit irrigation (deliberate under-irrigation of crops), hence the focus of this research was the use of deficit irrigation under practical...

An economic study of irrigation potential for Columbia Plateau farms in Oregon

Creator:: Bowman, Thomas Michael
Abstract:: The farmers of the Columbia Plateau region of Oregon, as well as other individuals and groups, have expressed a desire for information on the economic feasibility of irrigated farming in their area. This recent interest in irrigation is a result of reduced lifts and lower pumping costs brought about by...

A farm-level economic analysis of water-conserving irrigation systems and commercial agricultural water transfers to instream flows in central Oregon

Creator:: Turner, Brenda
Abstract:: The middle Deschutes River between Bend, Oregon and Lake Billy Chinook typically experiences critically low flows during the irrigation season. Commercial agriculture in the North Unit Irrigation District and Central Oregon Irrigation District is one major user of Deschutes River water. The overall objective of this research was to estimate...

Exact welfare measurement: theory and application to recreation economics

Creator:: Niklitschek, Mario E.
Abstract:: Although the limitations of consumer surplus have become widely known, there exists a lack of studies which present in a coherent framework recent developments in estimating Hicksian welfare measures. This study attempts to fill partially this gap by analyzing some theoretical and empirical aspects in the estimation of exact welfare...
