“…with recycled water is particularly interesting and has important policy implications. This result is consistent with a few other studies that found similar effects (Ellis et al, 2018a;Savchenko et al, 2018a). However, our findings do not support the results of prior research that showed consumers lowered their willingness to pay for fresh produce irrigated with recycled water when they received negative information about recycled water and that both positive and negative information increased acceptance of foods irrigated with recycled water (Savchenko et al, 2018a).…”

“…However, numerous studies have shown that consumers in the U.S. are reluctant to accept recycled water when used for products that are ingested or involve personal contact because of its "yuck factor" (Po et al, 2003;Rozin et al, 2015;Kecinski et al, 2016. Consumers' aversion extends to produce from plants irrigated with recycled water (Savchenko et al, 2018a), presenting a serious barrier to widespread adoption of recycled water by U.S. agricultural producers. Therefore, it is important for policymakers, producers and the food industry to thoroughly understand this stigma and ways to mitigate it.…”

“…One factor that consistently had a negative impact on the acceptance of reclaimed water is the presence of children in a household. Menegaki et al (2007) found that families with children were less likely to visit parks watered with reclaimed water, and Savchenko et al (2018a) found that households that included children were less likely to pay for fresh food, particularly when it was produced with reclaimed water. In another study, however, Savchenko et al (2018b) found that neither gender, education, nor children present in the home had significant impacts on consumer behavior.…”
