Data of Azerbaijan's water resources have been analyzed; comprehensive measures have been grounded to increase the efficiency of water use in irrigation as an effective response to the challenges associated with climate change in the context of declining water resources. It has been proposed to reconstruct irrigation and reclamation systems using new irrigation technologies, as well as to improve their management to prevent unproductive water losses and to create conditions for receiving sustainable crop yields.
