Game analysis in water resource allocation

Water resource is an important factor for social economic development. Agricultural water occupies a large proportion in the water consumed structure in China, so spreading water-saving irrigation technology is an important approach to achieve an efficient utilization of water. From the perspective of game theory, this paper analyzes the relationship between water price and water-saving irrigation, water supply unit and peasant household behavior with water. It explains that the system of the appropriate and reasonable water price would inspire the adoption of water-saving irrigation technology and improve the use efficiency of water resources.
