This study was carried out to evaluate the water management activities of the Corum Irrigation Association in the years 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 for the irrigation facilities that took over the responsibility of operation and maintenance. Water use efficiency performance indicators and agricultural efficiency performance indicators were used in the evaluation. As a result of the evaluation, it was determined that the water supply rate was lower than the ideal value and suggestions were made to increase it. In addition, opinions and suggestions on increasing the irrigation rate were also expressed. However, it was been determined that there has been a decrease in the income obtained for the unit area irrigated and the income obtained for the unit irrigation water taken into the scheme in recent years. It was seen that the reason was deficit irrigation due to drought-induced lack of water and suggestions were made on this issue. As a result, considering the location of the study area and the lack of a long history of irrigation management, it was seen that Çorum Water User Association has demonstrated a successful water management performance.
