Tarifas y Agua Virtual en Tres Cultivos del Distrito de Riego 003 Tula, Hidalgo, México
Resumen
El precio que pagan los productores por el agua no alcanza para recuperar los costos de operación y mantenimiento. Una política de precios puede contribuir a uso eficiente del agua, a mejoras en la tecnificación de riego y a la reconversión de cultivos de mayor valor. El objetivo fue determinar la tarifa del agua por dam3 para producir una tonelada de alfalfa, maíz grano y avena forrajera, en los diferentes módulos del distrito de riego 003 Tula, Hidalgo. El enfoque de la metodología fue cuantitativo a partir de datos de la cuota actual de riego, el rendimiento del cultivo y la lámina de riego. Los resultados sugieren que la tarifa calculada del agua es diferente para cada cultivo y para cada módulo de riego; en promedio, fue mayor para la avena forrajera, seguido del maíz grano y la alfalfa. Incrementar las cuotas de riego a medida que aumenta la demanda de agua representa un freno a esos incrementos. Sin embargo, incrementar las tarifas en el distrito de riego 003 no resultaría en una reconversión de cultivos debido a que la contaminación del agua les impide sembrar cultivos que requieren mejor calidad de agua.
