Adoption timing of water conserving irrigation practices in the Mississippi Delta: An application of duration analysis

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract Irrigation drives the decline in the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer. Rapid adoption of water‐conserving practices (WCPs) is key. Duration analysis of the adoption of computerized (polypipe) hole selection (CHS) and center‐pivot (CP) irrigation in the Mississippi Delta shows that: NRCS funding for WCPs and crop acreage (cotton for CP
