Present review of water resources within catchments of the Murray-Darling Basin will result in reduced access to water for consumptive use with consequential significant socio-economic and community impacts. Water markets are seen as major instruments to assist farmers in managing this process and thereby minimize the impact within rural communities. However, research has identified several barriers to trade and several future research needs. This project addresses five of these issues by providing insight into three community barriers to trade as well as a framework for ongoing monitoring, analyses and reporting of market outcomes and impacts to assist adaptive policy development.

目前对墨累-达令盆地集水区水资源的审查将导致消费用水的减少，从而产生重大的社会经济和社区影响。水市场被视为协助农民管理这一过程的主要工具，从而尽量减少对农村社区的影响。然而，研究已经确定了几个贸易壁垒和几个未来的研究需求。本项目通过深入了解三种社区贸易壁垒以及一个持续监测、分析和报告市场结果和影响的框架来解决其中的五个问题，以协助制定适应性政策。
