The binary logistic method is useful to identify whether the influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable is highly significant, significant or insignificant when ceteris paribus. Here, it is performed to identify the influence of age, gender, educational qualification, profession, satisfaction with water supply, type of land, source of irrigation, and method of irrigation on the WTU the TWW for agriculture and the WTP for the reuse (Table 5). The analysis is done with the simultaneous considerations of all the independent variables against the dependent variable. The subdivisions of categorical variables, age, and profession are treated as dummy variables.
