Economics Of Farm Water Supplies, P P. Eckersley
Economics Of Farm Water Supplies, P P. Eckersley
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The economics of farm water supplies can be studied in two ways. One is to compare the costs of alternative ways of supplying a specified quantity of water to a farm. Another is to calcu;ate how mucha farmer can afford or will pay for a water supply.
I propose to look at these questions from the point of vieew of an eastern wheatbelt farmer, assuming that he must pay the full costs of any water supply provided for his property.
