The problem of future water supply-demand integration are central to climate impact assessment and particular concern to many states of the world. The development of agricultural systems and their adaptive management strategies are considered. The adjustment in regional pattern for agriculture could be triggered by the climate change and the agricultural and economic prospects at the farm, regional or state level can be affected. Sustainable development of irrigation is closely related to water resources systems. Both these objectives use mathematical optimization and simulation models and computer software. The principle of relating irrigation water requirements to meteorological factors is a physically based mathematical model calibrated on observation of measured withdrawals of large irrigation systems. The nations may be involved by the social, economic, and climatic changes in a different manner and the possible reaction may also differ. Therefore the planning policy may be different and the sustainable irrigation planning may involve also the political aspects.
