Farm size is a significant determinant of both groundwater irrigated farm acreage and groundwater irrigation … application rates per acre. This paper analyzes the patterns of groundwater exploitation when resource users in the area overlying … inefficient dynamic and spatial allocation of groundwater because it impacts income distribution not only across periods but also …

The groundwater resource, the drinking water areas and the surface water quality can be protected by measures, e.g. by … paper is to estimate the benefits of groundwater protection by the valuation method choice experiments. This method allows … for separate estimation and comparison of the different attributes connected to groundwater protection i.e. the effects on …

One of the most important groundwater problems in Oregon, Washington and Idaho is the long-term decline of the … groundwater surface level, which has been intensified by wells through discharging water from aquifers. Groundwater contamination … use. We developed a spatial agricultural groundwater extraction model by coupling a hydrological model and a contamination …

This paper studies the optimal management of groundwater resources when agronomic and hydrologic constraints bind the … use of groundwater for irrigation. The binding constraints lead to a perfectly inelastic demand for groundwater. In the … case of symmetric agents the social and private rates of groundwater extraction coincide with one another and commonality …
