Abstract: In this paper, an optimized planning model of field water-saving irrigation was developed based fully on considering the minimum increase of annual cost of field water-saving irrigation projects, regional water resources types, available field irrigation water volume, crop planting structure, status of water-saving irrigation and feasibility of all the water-saving irrigation ways so as to satisfy the demand of crop irrigation water supply. The model was used to work out an optimized planning scheme of field water-saving irrigation in Hotan Prefecture, Xinjiang in 2020. The model can be used to provide a scientific basis for working out a rational field water-saving irrigation planning and achieve a rational redistribution of water and land resources in the prefecture.
