Abstract :
Firstly, underground water kinetic situation was analyzed. Then, kinetic simulation model was set up for the typical irrigation district. Based on the simulation model, influence of different irrigation water saving methods on underground water and eco-environment were studied. It is proved by the study findings that irrigation water saving measures play important role in overall enhancement of irrigation water use efficiency, decreasing groundwater table and alleviation of irrigation water shortage in the irrigation district. It is believed that the study results would play certain active values in irrigation water saving structures rehabilitation and eco-environment protection in the irrigation districts.
