| تحویل حجمی آب کشاورزی یکی از الزامهای بهبود بهره‌وری، شفافیت و مدیریت منابع آب بخش کشاورزی در ایران است. پژوهش حاضر با هدف ارزیابی ابعاد سیاستی، فنی، اجتماعی و اجرایی تحویل حجمی آب و شناسایی مهم‌ترین موانع، پیش‌نیازها و عوامل موفقیت آن بهاجرا در امده است. داده‌ها از 69 نفر از خبرگان و ذی‌نفعان و با استفاده از پرسشنامه 16 گویه‌ای، گردآوری و با آزمون‌های فریدمن، کروسکال–والیس، اسپیرمن و کای‌دو تحلیل شد. نتایج بهدست آمده نشان داد که بالاترین میانگین گویه‌ها مربوط به ضرورت مشارکت تشکل‌های آب‌بران با 4/43و پایین‌ترین میانگین مربوط به هماهنگی بین دستگاه‌های مسئول با 1/95بود. افزایش بهره‌وری آب (38 درصد پاسخ‌ها) مهم‌ترین هدف، و ضعف مدیریت (58 درصد پاسخ‌ها) مهم‌ترین مانع اجرای طرح شناسایی شد. مشارکت تشکل‌های آب‌بران (29 درصد پاسخ‌ها) مهم‌ترین پیش‌نیاز، سامانه ملی هوشمند پایش آب (48 درصد پاسخ‌ها) مهم‌ترین نوآوری قابل استفاده و نظارت و ضمانت اجرایی قوانین (23 درصد پاسخ‌ها) مهم‌ترین عامل موفقیت شناخته شد. همچنین 84 درصد پاسخ‌دهندگان آینده تحویل حجمی آب را خنثی تا نگران‌کننده ارزیابی کردند. یافته‌ها نشان می‌دهد چالش‌های اجرای تحویل حجمی آب در ایران صرفاً فنی نیست، بلکه ضعف‌های مدیریتی، نهادی و اجرایی نقش تعیین‌کننده دارند؛ بنابراین، توسعه زیرساخت‌های فنی تنها در صورت همراهی با مشارکت، هماهنگی و نظارت مؤثر نتیجه‌بخش خواهد بود. نتایج بر ضرورت تقویت هم‌زمان حکمرانی، مشارکت ذی‌نفعان، هماهنگی نهادی، ضمانت اجرای قوانین و زیرساخت‌های هوشمند پایش آب تأکید دارد. با این حال، پایایی محدود ابزار (آلفای ابعاد 0/5 تا 0/6 و آلفای کل 0/6) تفسیر نتایج را محدود کرده است. | ||

| چکیده [English] | ||
| Extended Abstract Introduction Given Iran’s location in an arid and semi-arid region and a decline of 211 ± 34 billion cubic meters in total water storage between 2003 and 2019, reforming agricultural water management and distribution practices has become essential. In this context, volumetric agricultural water delivery can contribute to more accurate water accounting, improved transparency, and more efficient water management. This study aimed to assess the policy, technical, social, and implementation dimensions of volumetric agricultural water delivery in Iran and to identify the major barriers, prerequisites, innovations, and success factors from the perspectives of 69 experts and stakeholders, including researchers (30.4%), consultants (18.8%), Ministry of Energy specialists (18.8%), Ministry of Agriculture Jihad specialists (17.4%), and farmers or water users’ association representatives (14.5%), selected through purposive snowball sampling. Methodology Data were collected using a researcher-developed questionnaire consisting of 16 items covering four dimensions—policy, technical, social, and implementation—and six priority-oriented questions. The questionnaire items were measured using a five-point Likert scale. The collected data were analyzed using the Friedman test, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Kruskal–Wallis test, Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, and Chi-square test. A significance level of 0.05 was considered for statistical inference. Main Findings The findings revealed that the most frequently identified challenge facing volumetric agricultural water delivery in Iran is management and institutional weakness, rather than a lack of technical equipment. The highest mean score was related to water users' association participation (4.43), while the lowest was related to coordination among responsible organizations (1.95). Increasing water productivity (38%) was identified as the primary objective, management weakness (58 %) as the most important barrier, water users' association participation (29%) as the most critical prerequisite, a national smart water monitoring system (48%) as the most frequently selected proposed innovation, and monitoring and effective enforcement of laws (23%) as the most important success factor. Additionally, 84% of respondents assessed the future of volumetric agricultural water delivery as unchanged, concerning, or very concerning. Conclusion Respondents’ assessments indicate that the main challenge of volumetric agricultural water delivery in Iran is institutional and managerial weakness, not merely technical limitations. Success requires a holistic governance approach that simultaneously strengthens inter-organizational coordination, empowers water users' associations, develops smart monitoring systems, and ensures legal enforcement. The unchanged-to-very-concerning outlook reported by approximately 84% of respondents indicates that without fundamental institutional reforms and implementation improvements, the sustainable implementation of volumetric agricultural water delivery—and its goals of enhanced productivity and equitable water distribution—will face serious obstacles. A gradual, participatory, and evidence-based implementation strategy is therefore recommended. Conflict of Interest The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.
