Resumen
BRAVO-PEREZ, Héctor Manuel; CASTRO-RAMIREZ, Juan Carlos; MAGANA ZAMORA, José Dolores y REYES MARTINEZ, Amelia. Evaluation of alternative policies for water supply in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. Tecnol. cienc. agua [online]. 2013, vol.4, n.2, pp.163-169. ISSN 2007-2422.
This paper presents results related to the economic efficiency of water supply alternatives for Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. The analysis applied the Kaldor-Hicks criterion to evaluate and compare two different supply sources: desalinated seawater and bought water for agriculture in the region. Emphasis is given to the distributive conflict between urban and agricultural water uses in the different hydrographic watersheds.
