Then farmers were divided in 2 groups (farmers with less than 5 acres and more than 5 acres) with using analysis of variance that each group of farmers affected by the reaction of the three scenarios (decrease 30%, 40% &70% water resources for farmers group1 and decrease 10%, 25% & 75% water resources for farmers group2 also increase 70%, 80% & 100% in water price for farmers group1 and 75%, 80% &100% for farmers group2) were examined. The results showed that the economic value of water under scenarios of decrease water for farmers group 1 respectively equal 1100, 1340 & 3120 Rials and for farmers group 2 respectively equal 10, 1260 and 4730 Rials.
