[On water saving agriculture and water resource sustainable utilization in Northeastern China].

A strategy of systematic water saving agriculture was proposed based on the analysis of the water resource shortage regime and the agricultural water saving potential under the background of promoting the old industrial bases in Northeastern China. Different pattern areas of water saving agriculture were divided, and integrated water saving technique systems and water saving cultivation models were recommended, according to their agricultural production characteristics and development requirement in the future. The systematic strategy for sustainable utilization of water resource, the necessity of applying project for water saving and regulating rivers and watercourses synthetically, and the trends in water saving research in Northeastern China were discussed.
