Abstract

Nonpoint-source pollution can be reduced by altering land use. A methodology to evaluate alternative management systems and the resulting economic and environmental impacts under risk is presented. Results show that a 20% reduction in leaching losses decreased net income by only $50 to $600 depending upon the level of risk aversion.
