Water resources management is faced with many limitations and dimensions in the course of transformation in its conditions and scope of action. Based on this, identify the factors affecting the sustainable management of water resources. It is considered an important measure for its optimal use. Therefore, in the present study, the effective factors on the sustainable management of water resources were investigated based on the farmers' point of view. This research is descriptive-analytical in nature. And in terms of purpose, it is practical. And the approach governing it is quantitative. The statistical community is formed by the household heads of agricultural lands in the central part of Ardabil County. in order to review the issue Seven indicators were used in the form of 72 items. Structural equation modeling (Smart PLS) was used to analyze the issue. A review of the findings shows the initial evaluation of the measurement model indicates the appropriateness of the model. The results of the model execution showed, that five factors had a factor loading of less than 0.5 and were removed from the list of factors. The results of running the model again showed that all the remaining 68 items had an effect rate higher than 0.5. The results of the structural model indicate the existence of a significant structural relationship between sustainability management and economic, social, productivity, technical, educational, and institutional effects. The index of the coefficient of square determination showed that this coefficient was estimated to be higher than the strong value of 0.26 for all research indicators. The coefficient of determination index for the economic index was estimated to be 0.299 less than other indices, and the productivity index was estimated to be 0.511 more than other indices. The results show that reviewing and revising the management perspectives of agricultural water resources and moving towards a cross-sectoral and collaborative perspective based on optimal management, which along with maintaining the economic, social, technical, educational, etc. dimensions, plays an essential role in providing sustainable management. It plays water resources.
