Studies on Sustainable Development of Water-saving Agriculture

Based on several years study at Shangqiu Experimental Station,and features of drought,water-logging and soil salinization in part of Huang-Huai-Hai Plain and water shortage situations in China,it was pointed out in this paper that the bases for sustainable development of water-saving agriculture in this region is to develop high-production,high-quanlity and high-efficiency agriculture by controlling water,increasing soil fertility,adjusting agro-structure and breeding new varieties.The main limiting fctor to sustainable agricultural development is water shortage,then increasing water use efficiency is the key to solve water crisis in this region.
