Page 9, lines 38-42: Is the implicit assumption here that if farmers have to pay more for water resources, then they will invest more in efficient irrigations schemes? If so, I think it’s worth stating it explicitly.

This is true but we should make an observation about the current irrigation intensity in some parts of Libya, which according to SASS III, farmers have adapted to semi-intensive irrigated agriculture, often going through water-stressed crops.
