Evaluation Index System for Agricultural Water Management in Targeted Poverty Alleviation Based on 3E Model

Abstract EN

Agricultural water management provides the basic support and guarantee for targeted poverty alleviation.

This paper presents a 3E + 1 evaluation model for the performance of agricultural water management in targeted poverty alleviation based on 3E theory, which is more scientific, reasonable, and reliable.

On this basis, an evaluation index system including three levels of indicators is designed, and the weight of each evaluation index and performance evaluation model is determined.

A case study of a county in the old district of Maoshan in Jiangsu province was conducted using the proposed evaluation theory and methods.

The results show that the overall performance of agricultural water management for targeted poverty alleviation in this area was good but needs more improvement in innovation.

The evaluation results are roughly consistent with the evaluations of higher authorities, experts, and scholars, which proves that the evaluation system is scientific and reasonable.
