Abstract:

IWRM (integrated water resources management) is considered to be an effective way to solve the problem of water resources. According to the overall framework requirements of IWRM and the overall objectives of Key Management PlanningofShiyang River Basin, this paper constructs the IWRM performance evaluation system of Shiyang River Basin, obtains data from questionnaire and water resources bulletin, uses expert scoring and AHP to determine the weight, and uses multi index weighted comprehensive index method to calculate IWRM performance. The results show that the IWRM performance of the study area showed an upward trend from 2000 to 2017 from "average" to "good". The four evaluation dimensions showed an upward trend, in which the economic benefit increased the most obviously, followed by the social equity, followed by the efficiency of water management organization, while the eco-environmental benefit only increased by 1%. On the whole, the goal of improving water resources utilization efficiency and benefit, increasing farmers' income and promoting the sustainable development of regional economy and society was achieved, but the eco-environmental problem was not solved.
