Abstract
Based on the survey data of farmers in Heilonggang District,using binomial Logit model,the influencing factors of the farmer's willingness to adopt wheat and maize agronomic water-saving technology were analyzed.The results showed that wheat and maize agronomic water-saving technology extension should focus on the peasant households,in which the labor force accounted for a high proportion of the total household population and household annual gross income was low,with large-scale land management,large area of land,higher proportion of planting industry income in total household income,male head of household with a high education level.The demonstration and leading roles of demonstration fanners should be strengthened to play.The farmers had a very weak water-saving awareness,so it was urgent to strengthen the farmer's water-saving publicity and education by various means.Government should formulate reasonable policies to increase agricultural water's fee to promote the farmers to save water.It should be continued to support farmers and increase the intensity of support.The water-saving technology information on wheat and maize should be publicized more by using newspapers,the village loudspeaker broadcasts,village cadres,training meeting,relatives,friends,neighbors.
