Relying on the conceptual DPSIR framework and MODFLOW analysis, this study used a mixed approach to produce groundwater resource management solutions for the Najafabad area in central Iran. According to DPSIR results, agricultural activities put the highest pressure on groundwater resources in this region. The results showed the effectiveness of reducing water withdrawal over 30 years in maintaining the aquifer in a state of equilibrium. The best scenario consisted of cutting down extraction by 10% over the said period. Output maps of the water table rise at the Najafabad aquifer clearly showed that the groundwater management scenario involving a 10% reduction of water withdrawal was the most effective solution, as it would raise the water level by 6.7 m. Regarding other scenarios, reducing cultivated area by 20% was found to raise the water table by 5.03 m on average, while cutting down water withdrawal by 5% increased the water table by 3.6 m, and a 10% reduction of the cultivated area resulted in a 1.85 m rise. The combined model proposed here can be used for similar aquifers and can aid decision-makers and managers.

依靠概念性DPSIR框架和MODFLOW分析，本研究采用混合方法为伊朗中部的Najafabad地区提供了地下水资源管理解决方案。根据DPSIR的结果，农业活动对该地区的地下水资源造成了最大压力。结果表明，在保持含水层处于平衡状态的情况下，在30年内减少了取水量的有效性。最好的方案是在上述期间将提取量减少10％。Najafabad含水层地下水位上升的输出图清楚地表明，涉及减少取水量10％的地下水管理方案是最有效的解决方案，因为它将使水位提高6.7 m。关于其他情况，减少20％的耕地面积可以使地下水位平均增加5.03 m，而减少5％的取水量可以使地下水位增加3.6 m，而减少10％的耕地面积则可以增加1.85 m 。这里提出的组合模型可以用于类似的含水层，并可以帮助决策者和管理者。
