Irrigation Restriction and Biomass Market Interactions: The Case of the Alluvial Aquifer AgEcon
Popp, Michael P.; Nalley, Lawton Lanier; Vickery, Gina B..
The U.S. Geological Survey has determined that irrigation in Arkansas’ Delta is unsustainable. This study examines how irrigation restrictions would affect county net returns to crop production. It also considers the effect of planting less water-intensive bioenergy crops—switchgrass and forage sorghum—in the event biofuel markets become a reality. Results suggest that sustainable irrigation restrictions without bioenergy crops would decrease producer returns by 28% in the region. Introducing these alternative crops would both reduce groundwater use and may restore state producer returns, albeit with significant spatial income redistribution to crop production throughout the state.

Expected Changes in Farm Landscape with the Introduction of a Biomass Market AgEcon
Popp, Michael P.; Nalley, Lawton Lanier; Vickery, Gina B..
This study examines how the introduction of dedicated energy crops—switchgrass and forage sorghum—may affect Arkansas’ crop allocation decisions. The study captures crop production practices at the county or crop reporting district level. Results are in a static equilibrium framework and limited to a one-year ahead forecast. The model’s predictive success was evaluated by comparing 2007 model results with no energy crop production to actual acreages harvested. Switchgrass entered land use at approximately $25 and $35/dry ton in 2007 and 2008, respectively. Higher 2008 commodity prices for traditional crops caused lower switchgrass acreage peaks compared to 2007. Further, at higher biomass price levels—$45 to $55/dry ton depending on year and whether or not...

Going, Going, Almost Gone: How the Depletion of the Alluvial Aquifer Will Affect Cropping Decisions in the Arkansas Delta AgEcon
Popp, Michael P.; Nalley, Lawton Lanier; Vickery, Gina B..
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has determined that agricultural irrigation in Arkansas’ Delta is unsustainable with significant negative economic repercussions on producers net returns affected by the Alluvial aquifer. This study examines how irrigation restrictions in that region would affect county net returns to crop production. It also considers the effect of planting less water-intensive bioenergy crops in the event biofuel markets become a reality. A constrained optimization model determines acreage allocations and net returns under three irrigation scenarios: i) no irrigation restrictions, ii) irrigation restrictions that lead to a sustainable Alluvial aquifer, and iii) irrigation restrictions that would lengthen the life of the Alluvial...
