This work presents models that characterize the relationships between quantity and quality of irrigation water application, and agricultural production and the environment. A comprehensive modeling approach addressing both the benefits of irrigation and the potential negative effects is introduced. Physical-biological concepts are combined with economic and engineering principles to demonstrate the usefulness of the model for analyzing various water management and policy issues. Decision makers on all levels should find the modeling approach interesting and useful in the management issues from the farm to national levels.

The first part of this study examines "The Effects of Trade Cycles on Agriculture" while the second part explores "The Responsibility of Agriculture for Trade Cycles." Kirk's approach is both theoretical and empirical; he especially focuses on the period 1926 to 1931, relying largely on British and U.S. data.
