Evaluation of agricultural wetland utilization and landscape design

Abstract Water is an important component of agricultural wetlands, and human activities have disrupted the water cycle and its related functions, leading to problems such as water scarcity, water pollution, and wetland degradation. As an important water source conservation area and ecosystem, agricultural wetlands not only help maintain the sustainable use of water resources but also help improve the efficiency and quality of agricultural production. This article first introduces the water-centered utilization of agricultural wetlands, and then proposes the challenges and problems faced by agricultural wetland water resources management, focusing on the utilization and protection of water resources. Through research and analysis, the utilization efficiency of Xixi Wetland water resources was analyzed, and the importance of water resource protection and landscape design was analyzed using the Hangzhou Xixi Wetland as an example. This article proposed corresponding landscape design strategies for different utilization methods and analyzed the water resource utilization efficiency of the Xixi Wetland in the past decade through research. Under scientific management, the water resource utilization efficiency increased by 21% compared to 10 years ago. This article focused on ‘water’ and explored the utilization and landscape design of agricultural wetlands.
