Summary In this study, It is predicted that balance between water demand and supply involved in agricultural water and urban water will change due to climatic changes and social changes in the future. Accordingly, balance between future water demand and supply needs to be ascertained for each common water area to investigate how nationwide balance between water demand and supply is affected. It is also important to popularize water conservation practice, supply water resources in a stable manner, and properly mange running water.
