Cascade pump station irrigation districts (CPSIDs) consume large quantities of water and energy. Water- and energy-saving results and income increases are guaranteed under the sustainable development of the CPSID. The CPSID is divided into several sub-districts based on the elevation difference of topography and pump station distributions. The spatial patterns of crops and irrigation technologies can be changed by adjusting crop planting structures and developing drip irrigation in each sub-district. Its optimization will change the spatial patterns of irrigation water and energy consumption to achieve water- and energy-saving results, increase income, and provide an ecological advantage. To obtain the optimal spatial patterns of water and energy in the CPSID, a multi-objective linear programming model of minimum irrigation water consumption, minimum energy consumption, and highest crop output value was established. This model was applied to the Jingdian Phase I Irrigation District in northwest China, and an optimal scheme of water and energy spatial patterns was obtained. Compared with the present situation, the optimal scheme could save water by 26.18%, save energy by 29.38%, and increase income by 29.55%. The increased investment in the drip irrigation project would lead to reduced irrigation water and energy consumption and increased crop output value. The research results provide a scientific basis for the sustainable development of agriculture and ecological environment protection in the CPSID.
