Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates whether Federal water resource development projects significantly impact U.S. production and prices of major crops. The author uses projections of yields and production to calculate the contribution of Federal projects over a 50-year period from 1970 to 2020. Comparing the contribution of the Reclamation Program to national production, the author projects production effects for different crops and discusses the potential impact on their prices. The book concludes that the production effects are likely to be small for grains and soybeans but more significant for intensive crops such as vegetables, fruits, and potatoes. The author provides interim price adjustments for project evaluation to reflect the potential impact on agricultural production and prices, emphasizing the need to consider the specific crops and their geographic distribution when assessing the impact of Federal water resource development projects.
