This dissertation explores the role of energy inputs, irrigation technology, and conservation policy in irrigated agricultural production. In the first chapter, I utilize empirical and simulation modeling to understand the impact of non-linear energy pricing on groundwater use decisions in the Republican River Basin of Colorado. The second chapter empirically investigates how peer effects and resource availability influence a producer's choice to adopt a resource-conserving irrigation technology using data from the Trifa Plain of Morocco. The third chapter develops a hydroeconomic model which pairs groundwater demand with a physical model of resource dynamics to quantify how a groundwater conservation policy implemented within a subsection of the Republican River Basin of Colorado creates resource and input market spillovers.
