Phosphorus-Based Application of Livestock Manure and the Law of Unintended Consequences AgEcon
Norwood, F. Bailey; Chvosta, Jan.
The application of manure phosphorus at rates above crop uptake has resulted in water pollution for some regions. In response, new manure management standards will require some farms to match manure phosphorus applications rates with crop uptake. For some regions, this will lead to more crop acres and a shift toward crops with greater nutrient uptake, both of which will increase nitrogen runoff. The greater nitrogen runoff could offset the lower phosphorus runoff to result in greater water pollution. This demonstrates the law of unintended consequences, which results when policy does not consider how economic agents respond to incentives.

Economic Analysis of Management Practices to Reduce Phosphorus Load to Lake Eucha and Spavinaw AgEcon
Howry, Sierra S.; Stoecker, Arthur L.; Storm, Daniel E.; White, Michael J..
Changes in management practices are often proposed to reduce phosphorus loading from a watershed due to over application of poultry litter. This study determines the choice, location, and level of each best management practice in the watershed to meet a Total Maximum Daily Load and margins of safety at least cost.
Tipo: Conference Paper or Presentation Palavras-chave: Best management practice; Phosphorus runoff; Poultry litter; Target MOTAD; Environmental Economics and Policy.

Risk and Nitrogen Application Decisions in Florida Potato Production AgEcon
Asci, Serhat; Borisova, Tatiana; VanSickle, John J.; Zotarelli, Lincoln.
This study focuses on development of agricultural best management practices (BMPs) for potato production areas in Northeast Florida, and presents the results of the initial situation assessment. BMP implementation is the primary strategy used by agencies and farmers to improve the efficiency and to ensure environmental sustainability of agricultural production. Although BMPs are defined as “economically feasible” and “cost-effective”, economic analysis conducted as a part of BMP development has been limited, leaving the room for disagreement about economic impacts of specific BMPs. As a part of the situation assessment, we used interviews, group discussions, a survey, and a field trip to collect information about farmers’ production practices and to...

Comparing a best management practice scorecard with an auction metric to select proposals in a water quality tender AgEcon
Rolfe, John; Windle, Jill.
This report compares evaluation frameworks for selecting landholder proposals to improve water quality. A water quality tender performed in the Burdekin region in Northern Australia in 2007/2008 was used as a case study. Tender bids can be assessed using an inputs-based best management practice scorecard or an outputs-based auction metric. Where landholder proposals are rated by inputs-based criteria, the scorecard approach, and other variants of multi-criteria analysis are commonly applied. Output-based approaches are typically applied in water quality and conservation tenders. This approach uses an environmental benefits index to summarise the cost-effectiveness of each proposal. The case study evaluation reported in this paper shows how...
