Table: 2 Logistic Regression Model for Reliability of Purchased Groundwater  Findings indicate that larger and older farmers are more likely to own tube wells, and hence control groundwater supplies. Groundwater markets improve the access to groundwater for small farmers, landless tenants, and younger households. Although groundwater legally belongs to the owners of the overlying land, in practice it is owned by the owners of the tube wells. However, well owners do not charge full scarcity value for the water.
