Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 18
Abstract
Agriculture is mother of all industries and it plays an important role in socio-economic life of developing and agricultural oriented countries. Developing countries like Iran with agricultural base but exporting oil are facing a main dependency problem. Dependency of economy on export of crude oil is one of the main problems that have resulted in increasing economic sanction and frangibility in society. The ability of cooperative sector in job creation, capital formation,security coefficient increase of investment depend on social as well as economic conditions, in which cooperative societies are acting, and government policies. Agricultural co-op by state support and revised implementation regulations and alignment of employment act can introduce the cooperative sector as one of the mechanisms by which government and society as a whole can reach their economic and social developmental goals. With respect to rural as well as tribal culture and social structure that even existed in urban areas, cooperation in different areas of life traditionally has a long history in Sistasn & Baluchestan. Therefore, high tendency towards privatization and transfer of economic activities to the private sector in spite of low potentials in S&B province to undertake certain types of economic activities, this research made an attempt to identify the areas of economic activity where cooperative sector involvement can come into existence by considering methods of need, strength and regional capacity.
