Gerald L. Horner

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1975, vol. 57, issue 1, 33-39

Abstract: Alternative policies to achieve a specified nitrogen pollution standard in subsurface irrigation return flows are compared. A system of effluent charges against emitters was the lowest cost and the amount of agricultural commodities produced was less than the alternative policy considered.
