Abstract:	"During the transition period the irrigation water usage in Bulgaria declined by nearly 85% and many parts of the existing canal systems were abandoned. We review the roots of the problem and discuss possible institutional options to cope with the situation. The following determinants of institutional change are considered: features of transactions related to nature; characteristics of actors; governance structure; and property rights system. Data and information refer to interviews conducted in the Plovdiv region."
