Water supply in the Eastern Cape: an economic case study of land rehabilitation in the Kromme River Catchment

This thesis emerged from funded research by ASSET Research, contracted by Water Research Commission. The project is co-funded by the ‘Working for Water’ programme. It forms part of a series of interdisciplinary studies focusing on the restoration of natural capital at nine sites throughout South Africa. The research stems from the hypothesis that restoring degrading landscapes has the potential to provide a quality flow of water, sequester carbon and improve land productivity. The studies will be merged in a meta-analysis using a systems model by a PhD student, drawing generic conclusions on restoration in South Africa.
