Résumé :
|
This book is a very useful collection for those interested in the impact of agriculture on water resources, and on the allocation of water resources within the agricultural system. the global expansion of irrigated lands during the 20th century and beyond continues to contribute to food production, but also degrades the environment significantly. the consequent search for policy remedies has stimulated a vital body of economic research. this volume presents a sampling of economic research on the interface of irrigated agriculture with the environnment.
