    Economics of supply reliabiliity of irrigation water Femi Olubode‐Awwosola1, Upananda Herath Paragahawewa1, Martin Upsdell1 & Don Vattala2 1AgResearch Ltd., Ruakura Research Centre, Hamiltton, New Zealand 2Environment Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand Paper presented at the 2013 NZARES Conference Lincoln University – Canterbury, New Zealand. August 28‐30, 2013 Copyright by author(s). Readers may make copies of this document for non‐commercial purposes only, provided that this copyright notice appears on all such copies Economics of supply reliability of irrigation water Femi Olubode-Awosola,* Upananda Herath Paragahawewa,* Martin Upsdell,* Don Vattala** *AgResearch Ltd., Ruakura Research Centre, Hamilton, New Zealand **Environment Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand SUMMARY In this study, we have assessed the economic impact of potential increase in supply reliability of irrigation water in the Hinds Plains Area in the Ashburton district. The Hinds catchment has a number of irrigation schemes namely, Rangitata Diversion Race (provides water for Mayfield Hinds and Valetta Schemes), Barrhill Chertsey, Eiffelton and Lynford Schemes. All these schemes have varying supply reliability which ranges from 40% to 80% approximately. First, we estimated the relationship between water availability and pasture growth using experimental data. We then employed this relationship to estimate the potential incremental pasture growth with assumed increased supply reliability (95%) at farm level. We estimated the farm level benefit of increased pasture production in terms of saved costs in supplementary feed. These farm level estimates were used to assess the catchment level farm income gain. The catchment level income gain was then employed to assess the regional level economic gain (GDP and employment) by the socio-accounting matrix input-output model (SAMI-O) simulation.
