As part of the NSERC Alliance project on Sustainable Irrigation on Prince Edward Island, Masters-candidate David Morgan, is conducting a survey on The Economics of Supplemental Irrigation. All Island producers are welcome to participate. Please reach out to David directly if you have further questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Research question:<\/strong> How do profitability, stability, crop quality, and regulations shape the economic performance of supplemental irrigation for Prince Edward Island farmers, and particularly potato producers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n This research will be used in a master\u2019s thesis and academic publications. The analysis will generate information to help growers and other PEI farmers make informed investment decisions about expensive irrigation systems, while assisting researchers in conducting more accurate irrigation research. It will also help with policy and program analysis related to supplemental irrigation.
