Increases in water demand due to population growth, industrial development and urbanization necessitate economically … efficient use of water resources worldwide. This is particularly true in the dryland zones of the world relying on irrigated … agriculture for economic development such as in Uzbekistan, Central Asia. Due to ill-managed water resources and the dominance of …

This paper seeks to determine water demand of the mining sector in the Middle Olifants sub-basin of South Africa …. Despite the growing economic importance of mining in the area, only little is known about its water demand and the role of … water in the mines´ extraction process. By means of econometric estimation water price elasticities as well as substitution …
