The paper reviews the economic dimensions of irrigation with water of varying salinity levels, with emphasis on on-farm irrigation problems. The farm-region interactions are dealt with only briefly. The paper commences with a short review of the underlying physical water-soil-crop yield relationships and of the sources of information regarding them. In the next section, empirical estimates of farms' income losses under selected situations are reviewed. The next section discusses the alternatives open to farms to reduce salinity-induced losses and the agro-economic models designed to evaluate them. Several aspects of the farm-region interactions are then reviewed. The final section points to some hopeful frontier-changing innovations currently under study, which, if successfully developed, may drastically change the frame of reference for salinity problems in agriculture.
