In recent years, the different watershed operations have been performed to control and maintain surface water in the province. This research analyzed effective factors on rural participation in watershed management operations in Monj-Bideleh Basin of Lordegan in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province. Required data were compiled with questionnaire and analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics in SPSS. The results showed that relationship between age, main gob and experience in agriculture with participation is negative and insignificant.
