Water scarcity and inefficiency hinder China's sustainable agriculture. Water-saving irrigation (WSI) technology, as a crucial means to improve water efficiency, has relatively low adoption rates. In this context, this study utilizes survey data from 1,178 farmers in the Yellow River Basin in China, employing both the Binary Probit model and the Iv-Probit model to deeply explore the influence and mechanism of industrial organizations on farmers' willingness to adopt WSI technology. Our study shows that organizational participation behavior and degree of organizational support can effectively enhance farmers' willingness to adopt WSI technology. Organizational support indirectly enhances farmers' willingness to adopt WSI technology by standardizing production, providing agricultural training, and being proactive in learning agricultural techniques. Furthermore, organizational support has a significant impact on farmers with low education, young age, large land management areas, and poor agricultural production conditions. Our study also found that organizational support and government support can play a synergistic role in promoting farmers' willingness to adopt WSI technology. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the cultivation of industrial organizations, improve the governance structure of industrial organizations, strengthen the institutional guarantee of industrial organizations, and pay attention to the heterogeneity of farmer groups when leveraging the role of industrial organizations
