Abstract

<p> Current status and issues on the management of agricultural ponds were investigated through a case study conducted in Tanbara, Saijo, Ehime. For the target area, 54 agricultural ponds were classified to six categories according to their present situation. Only about 20 % of agricultural ponds play a major role in agriculture, mainly because of abandonment of cultivation caused by depopulation and decreased water demand. Survey results confirmed maintenance and management as very difficult to achieve in 5-10 years. This study revealed clear differences among communities in terms of their management policies and sense of urgency toward disasters, although the survey covered 12 communities in the same town. Furthermore, survey results demonstrated the importance of considering community water use patterns and characteristics.</p>
