摘要：本文针对伊朗干旱条件下的水资源短缺问题，试图探索研究更加有利于管理和更能准确反映水资源稀缺性的水价制度。利用综合水平衡与作物利用模型对现行的基于成本的水价模型与双层水价模型进行了对比。研究表明，双层水价模型反映了灌溉用水的两种用途：（1）保障农作物的最低产量；（2）自由种植。研究结果可为伊朗灌溉水价改革提供技术依据。

Abstract: This paper examines alternative water pricing arrangements that better manage and more accurately reflect conditions of increased water scarcity experienced during drought in Iran. A comprehensive water balance and crop use model compares the existing below cost water pricing model with an alternative two-tiered pricing approach. The tiers reflect two uses of irrigation water. The uses are (1) subsistence level crop production from farm household production of crops for food security and (2) discretionary cropping. Results of the study offer evidence for a reform of Iranian water pricing principles, subject to caveats described by the authors.
