The purpose of this project is to examine what has happened in the Yaqui Valley since the Stanford Project left the Valley in 2007. Emphasis will be on fertilizer use; water allocations; institutional changes in water, credit, and ejido villages; and agricultural prices and subsidies. More generally the emphasis will be on sustainability in the Valley, and on whether various measures of sustainability have improved or worsened.
