"Water is an extremely complex resource. It is both a public and a private good; it has multiple uses; the hydrology requires that we examine potential productivity gains at both the farm and the basin levels; both quantity and quality are important. The purpose of this book is to lay down some of the concepts and complexities in economic analyzes related to increasing water productivity, to provide some examples and to see what this implies regarding the potential for increasing water productivity. This book examines economic issues relating to the relationship between water and agriculture, with a special focus on irrigation."
