<jats:p>The Ebinur Lake Basin is one of the few lakes in the arid area of northwest China where water shortages have always been an important factor hindering development. Therefore, this study takes as its objective an investigation of water prices as the main economic factor that restricts the sustainable utilization of water resources to explore the economic affordability of water prices for farmers. Furthermore, the study attempts to determine the appropriate range of prices for water price reform. In this study, a questionnaire was designed to survey 210 agricultural water users in Wenquan County, Bole City, and Jinghe County, areas where agricultural activities are relatively concentrated in the vicinity of the Ebinur Lake Basin.
