| Tiivistelmä: | This study presents a methodology for incorporating environmental impacts and income distribution goals in economic analysis of watershed management policies. Empirical results indicate that farm costs are increased notably by restricting agricultural pollution and soil erosion. The income distribution constraint is less than 10% of the costs resulting from environmental regulations. Comparison of the results with the actual payments offered to farmers under the incentive program currently in place in the watershed reveals that these payments are approximately equal to the losses estimated by the analysis when the burden of environmental control is shared among the farmers. |
