Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to develop a hydroeconomic framework in Zayandehrud River Basin to optimize allocation of water released from Zayandehrud dam to downstream irrigation districts in order to maximize the economic benefits from agricultural activities. To achieve this goal, the existing agricultural activities in each irrigation district were simulated by applying the Positive Mathematical Programming (PMP) Economic Model. Coupling the developed Water Allocation planning model of the basin (MODSIM) with this Economic Model, the hydro-economic framework was then generated. Calibration and convergence of the models were performed by using the data from the baseyear (2014-2015). Results of employing the hydro-economic framework in the management of water distribution revealed significant changes in water-allocation priorities among irrigation districts. For instance, allocation priorities of Neko-Abad and Rudasht Irrigation districts which were respectively first and fifth under the current conditions, have significantly changed to fourth and second after employing the developed hydro-economic framework. As a case study, the potential of existing Operating System in North Rudasht Irrigation District to make an infrastructure for optimum Water Allocation by using the hydro-economic framework, was investigated as a representative of other irrigation districts in the basin. Results of modeling the existing Operating System of North Rudasht Irrigation District showed an average and inadequate performance in applying optimum Water Allocation with an economic approach, especially in the middle and lower sections.
