ABSTRACT:Most studies of water quality trading analyze its cost-effectiveness in isolation from existing policies like conservation subsidy programs that pay farmers to use conservation practices. We investigate the interaction between trading and conservation subsidy programs using an integrated assessment model that combines farmer behavioral responses with a biophysical water quality model. Current subsidy program enrollees with comparative advantage in nitrogen abatement will sort into the trading program, worsening adverse selection. Actual increases in abatement from trading depend on incentivizing additional conservation practice acreage without inducing the conversion of vegetative cover to cropland. (JEL Q52, Q58)

有保护补贴的水质交易

摘要:大多数关于水质交易的研究都将其成本效益分析与现有政策隔离开来,例如支付农民使用保护措施的保护补贴计划。我们使用综合评估模型调查贸易和保护补贴计划之间的相互作用,该模型将农民行为反应与生物物理水质模型相结合。当前在氮减排方面具有比较优势的补贴计划参与者将被纳入交易计划,从而加剧逆向选择。贸易减排的实际增加取决于激励额外的保护实践面积,而不会导致植被覆盖转化为农田。(JEL Q52, Q58)
