– Income and poverty
– Surface water and groundwater availability
• Predict the Effects of Proposed Policy and other Changes on Farmer Behavior/Outcomes
• Inform Policy
• Modeling at Three Spatial Extents

– Wet year and drought
– Rainfall and evapotranspiration
• Water Policy Setting
– Application of the A4A guidelines
• Price Shock
– Large increase in sugarcane prices
• Use Hydro-Econ Models to Predict:
– Cropping patterns, water use, employment, income
– Water availability in river system

• Application of A4A Guidelines Will Affect Agriculture– Effects will depend on product mix, irrigation technology, location and
upstream effects, weather conditions, and product prices
• Hydro-Econ Model Can Help Predict:– The location and extent of effects on (say) profits
– Provide estimates of willingness to pay for more water• Hence, help develop water markets
• Effects of Sugarcane Price Increase on Ag– Shift in product mix
– Increased irrigated area
– Profits increase
– Upstream farmers not affected by drought; not so for downstream farmers
• Effects of Sugar Price Increase on Poverty – Bad news: little employment growth, small-scale sugarcane not likely to
participate in boom
– Good news: increased water use in sugarcane does not ‘crowd out’ crops with higher labor demand patterns
