After exploring the potential for water reallocation and voluntary water trading we design strategies to reduce its transaction costs and take advantage of these opportunity by improving the sequencing of water policy reform and the packaging of water trading along with other economic instruments such as water pricing and insurance

Regulatory to incentive based policies can result in differential Nutrient Management Practice (NMP) adoption patterns by the farmers in watersheds. This paper presents an agent based model calibrated to a watershed in Lake Champlain Basin and tests the impacts of policy mix scenarios on farmer behaviors in adopting NMPs.

We explore the interactions of economic policy instruments to cope with water scarcity and droughts. Instruments such as pricing water security, water trading and drought insurance can be designed and packed to take advantage of the mutual reinforcing effects. The main conclusions are illustrated with evidence of these issues in the Tagus and Segura interconnected river basins in Spain.

This paper investigates different opportunity costs related to the Atlantic Forest conservation in Brazil. Besides collecting primary data, the methodological approaches also comprised factorial and cluster analyses to build a typology for agricultural production units. The results showed a great heterogeneity among farmers which poses challenges to a PES scheme.

Building on household surveys and an institutional analysis of payments for watershed services in Indonesia, this paper shows that economic incentives, theoretically analysed as signals, are not correctly understood and interpreted by participating farmers with intrinsic motivations. This in turn leads to low environmental effectiveness and additionality.
