Abstract
Water market literature review and empirical analysis, Final Report May 2020, prepared for the ACCC by Professor Sarah Ann Wheeler, Associate Professor Alec Zuo, Dr Ying Xu, Dr Juliane Haensch and Constantin Seidl from the Centre for Global Food and Resources at the University of Adelaide. The report includes a literature review summarising existing literature on Murray-Darling Basin (Basin) water markets, and quantitative analysis of data collected through various surveys of irrigators across the MDB Basin from 1998 to 2015. These surveys, among other things, asked irrigators about their water ownership, water trading and farm management behaviours, and included a number of attitudinal questions.
