A spectral angle mapper 1 Introduction (SAM) was adopted to identify the WWP area of each district divided by the hierarchical grades of land surface Henan province of China is a large-scale producer of drought index during 2001-2015. The results obtained winter wheat, whose crop yield is closely correlated to show the expediency of monitoring the WWP areas at the planting area and applied planting strategies. In the regional scale via drought regionalization, which view of global climate change, especially, the effect of provides a goodness-of-fit R2 =0.933, a mean relative error global warming on the safety of agricultural production, MRE=49,118 ha, and an overall accuracy up to 90.24%. real-time accurate monitoring of winter wheat planting The major WWP areas in Henan Province were located in (WWP) area data becomes a “must-have” feature of state- Zhoukou, Zhumadian, Shangqiu, Nanyang, and Xinxiang of-the-art agricultural management, which stimulates the prefecture-level cities.

Wang) bCollaborative Innovation Center of Water Resources Efficient Utilization and Support Engineering, Henan Province 450046, China cHenan Key Laboratory of Water Environment Simulation and Treatment, Henan Province 450046, China Received 7 November 2017; Accepted 4 February 2018 abstract Water is one of the essential resources to production and living. Agriculture, industry, and living are considered as the direct water consumption. This paper employs the concept of marginal product value to estimate the water consumption marginal benefits in Henan Province. We use data on agri- cultural water consumption, industrial water consumption, and domestic water consumption of 18 cities in Henan Province surveyed from 2006 to 2013 and considered the Cobb–Douglas production function. The results showed that, during the study period, except for the marginal benefit of agricul- ture in high developed area, the industrial and domestic water use increased, and the industrial and domestic water use benefits were much higher than agricultural. At the same time, the benefit of the developed area was higher than the developing area.
