Abstract

In this study, we use an ecreage-response model to complementthe 1995 USDA/NRCS study of water demand in agriculture in theACF river basin of Georgia through the year 2020. Due to priceeffects, our results show that cotton, peanuts, vegetables andorchards receive a larger fraction of irrigation than they do inthe NRCS model, while corn receives significantly less. Inaddition, we model peanut acreage as quasi-fixed in order toreflect agricultural policies, which further increases the shareof irrigation applied to cotton, orchards, and vegetables. Wecombine our estimated model with the results of the NRCS studyto determine the implicit future prices assumed in the NRCSmodel. Copyright Kluwer Academic Publishers 2002
