This study provides the first revealed preference estimates of Israelis' willingness to pay for produce irrigated with alternative water. Results show that Israelis prefer produce irrigated with conventional water over any type of alternative water and that their preferences for alternative water varies by type. These results indicate that there may be long-run limits to how high consumer demand for alternative water can rise. Policymakers should be cognizant of these findings and gradually expose the public to the unavoidable future of widespread alternative water use. Increased public awareness of water scarcity and alternative water technology will encourage adoption when it is possible and necessary.

长期使用替代灌溉水后的消费者看法:以色列的实地实验

这项研究首次揭示了以色列人愿意支付替代水灌溉产品的偏好估计。结果表明,与任何类型的替代水相比,以色列人更喜欢用传统水灌溉的农产品,而且他们对替代水的偏好因类型而异。这些结果表明,消费者对替代水的高需求量可能会上升到何种程度,这可能存在长期限制。政策制定者应该认识到这些发现,并逐渐让公众了解广泛替代水使用不可避免的未来。提高公众对缺水和替代水技术的认识将鼓励在可能和必要时采用。
