Individual Income Redistribution and Publicly Provided Irrigation: The Columbia Basin Project

Craig L. Infanger and Walter R. Butcher

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1974, vol. 56, issue 4, 805-811

Abstract: The performance of publicly provided irrigation as a method of income redistribution is examined by applying fiscal incidence analysis to a representative area in the Columbia Basin Project. Results indicate the redistributional impact of public irrigation is clearly not in favor of lower income classes.
