Abstract: Nutria harvests vary with price. As pelt prices declined, nutria populations - and wetland degradation - have risen. This paper develops a nutria supply model to predict harvests at various prices which are incorporated into a wetland loss model to determine how alternative incentive programs affect changes in wetland degradation.
