Abstract
The study aimed at identifying effective practices for irrigation management in rice cultivation in a study area of Nga Nam district, Soc Trang province. The modeling method (an agent-based model) was used to simulate the interaction among water supply capability of canal system, operation of irrigation system, water demand of rice, and human factors involved in the process of water resources management. The results showed that there are several unnecessary steps in irrigation decision, leading to ineffective irrigation management. The irrigated farming pratices such as maintaining the water depths and storing rainfall help to reduce the cost and adapt to saline intrusion in the future.
