Abstract

Our traditional theory has much to offer in helping us solve the problems of multiple resource use. The most interesting economic problem is the straight-forward efficiency problem-- whether or not at the margin a unit of resources produces equal value or utility in every alternative use and for every alternative user. The problem is interesting because efficiency disparities obviously exist. In large measure they result from the use of non economic criteria which have been used to allocate the resources.
