The Evolving Impact of the Ogallala Aquifer: Agricultural Adaptation to Groundwater and Climate
Hornbeck, Richard; Keskin, Pinar - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2011
Agriculture on the American Great Plains has been constrained by historical water scarcity. After World War II, technological improvements made groundwater from the Ogallala aquifer available for irrigation. Comparing counties over the Ogallala with nearby similar counties, groundwater access...

The Historically Evolving Impact of the Ogallala Aquifer: Agricultural Adaptation to Groundwater and Drought
Hornbeck, Richard; Keskin, Pinar - In: American Economic Journal: Applied Economics 6 (2014) 1, pp. 190-219
Agriculture on the American Plains has been constrained historically by water scarcity. Post-WWII technologies enabled farmers over the Ogallala aquifer to extract groundwater for large-scale irrigation. Comparing counties over the Ogallala with nearby similar counties, groundwater access...

Does Agriculture Generate Local Economic Spillovers? Short-run and Long-run Evidence from the Ogallala Aquifer
Hornbeck, Richard; Keskin, Pinar - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2012
Agricultural development may support broader economic development, though agricultural expansion may also crowd-out local non-agricultural activity. On the United States Plains, areas over the Ogallala aquifer experienced windfall agricultural gains when post-WWII technologies increased farmers'...

Does Agriculture Generate Local Economic Spillovers? Short-Run and Long-Run Evidence from the Ogallala Aquifer
Hornbeck, Richard; Keskin, Pinar - In: American Economic Journal: Economic Policy 7 (2015) 2, pp. 192-213
Agriculture may support the local nonagricultural economy in rural areas, though agricultural expansion may also crowd-out nonagricultural activity. On the United States Plains, areas over the Ogallala aquifer experienced windfall agricultural gains when post WWII technologies increased farmers'...
