The economic impact of conflicts between rice and sugarcane farmers over water distribution in the Mae Klong Irrigation Project in Thailand's Central Plain is examined. The study concerns the recently completed Kampaeng Saen Subproject, a part of the overall Mae Klong Project State I development encompassing 173,000 ha. Conflicts over water were found along tertiaries in which both rice and sugarcane were planted. These conflicts tended to discourage rice farmers from adopting more productive practices such as transplanting and cultivating a dry-season rice crop. These conflicts also adversely affected sugarcane production. Elimination of the conflicts could be expected to increase the incomes of rice farmers during the dry season, and to increase total production of rice and sugarcane and real revenue from rice during both seasons.
