The growing interest in water market transactions among policymakers and water users has created a need for understanding market price behavior and the heterogeneous nature of water rights. This article analyzes characteristics of markets, water rights, and water transactions to identify attributes which affect market values and price dispersion within regional markets. Based on econometric analysis of market data, water commodity and transaction characteristics are shown to be significantly related to market prices. Price dispersion that is unexplained by commodity attributes is related to characteristics of the regional market, including the number and size distribution of potential traders, costs of obtaining market information, and heterogeneity of water commodities traded.

Water management in Australia is at the crossroads. The largest share of the nation's regulated water supply is used in low value irrigation while large new demands in industry and the cities cannot be fulfilled as a consequence of government funding restrictions. Despite a good deal of discussion and evidence on the merits of water markets, particularly in terms of achieving an efficient reallocation of water from irrigation to higher valued uses, the fact is that institutional developments have been minor. The principal legislation in New South Wales, together with a series of significant cases, are outlined to illustrate the complexities of the contemporary system of water administration in Australia. The difficulties of institutionalizing an operational water market are then highlighted together with feasible alternatives and impacts to the direct water market.

Water marketing has received the most attraction and is most active in the Southwest. Yet, in the Northern Rockies, Montana is experimenting with methods to improve the transferability and marketability of water. The 1985 Montana Legislature enacted major legislation that provides the framework for the marketing of water by private water users, the state, and Indian tribes. Water marketing pursuant to the legislation has been hampered by a depressed regional economy and legal uncertainties. In this review of water marketing in the "Big Sky" state, Montana lawyer John Thorson provides an assessment of the difficulties of modifying the West's water law and institutions.

In addition to improving the allocative efficiency of water use, water markets may reduce irrigation-related water quality problems. The potential benefit is examined with a nonlinear programming model developed to simulate agricultural decision-making in a drainage problem area in California's San Joaquin Valley. Results indicate that a 30% drainage goal is achievable through improvements in irrigation practices and changes in cropping patterns induced by water market. Although water markets will not generally achieve a least-cost solution, they may be a practical alternative to economically efficient, but informationally intensive, environmental policies such as Pigouvian taxes.
