This book investigates the economic viability of irrigation and drought-proofing measures in agricultural contexts. It examines the financial implications of implementing irrigation systems and strategies to mitigate the effects of drought, drawing on economic principles and potentially case studies to evaluate their cost-effectiveness and impact on agricultural productivity and sustainability.

The book likely presents a detailed economic analysis, focusing on the quantitative aspects of irrigation and drought mitigation in agriculture. Its approach suggests a readership interested in the financial and policy dimensions of water management and agricultural sustainability. The subject matter points to a potentially dense, specialist text aimed at economists, agricultural planners, and policymakers.
