Abstract

This study aimed at investigating factors affecting the acceptance of water management plan for restoration of Lake Urmia by farmers in Naghadeh. Sociological model of environmental behavior by Fietkau and Kassel (1981) was used for analyzing behavior of farmers. Statistical population of the study was 670 farmers in 9 villages in Naghadeh Township. Based on Cochran formula and stratified random sampling, 152 farmers were selected as the study sample. A questionnaire was used for data collecting the validity of which was verified by experts. The reliability of the questionnaire was confirmed by calculating Cronbach's alpha. Correlation results showed positive and significant relationships between acceptance of water management plan for restoration of Lake Urmia with farmers' attitude towards lake restoration and water management plan, farmers' facilities, farmers' knowledge about lake restoration and water management plan, subjective norm, sense of responsibility, land ownership and level of education. Results of Logistic Regression indicated the farmers' knowledge about lake restoration, farmers' facilities, farmers' attitude towards lake restoration and attitude towards water management plan as the most important determinant factors of two groups of farmers (adopters and non-adopters of water management plan). This could correctly classify 92. 1% of the total respondents. 64 to 88 percent of variance of the variable acceptance of water management plan was determined by independent variables entered in the model. Based on the findings, suggestions were made regarding the design and implementation of educational and extension programs to increase the acceptance of water management plan for restoring Lake Urmia among farmers.
