Abstract: (103 Views)
In during Iran's economic, social, and cultural development programs, the government has implemented various policies to support wheat farmers. This study, considering the strategic importance of wheat as a product, investigates the provincial impact of policies related to input subsidies and agricultural insurance. In this context, the budgetary support indicators, including energy subsidies, fertilizers and pesticides, agricultural insurance, and banking facilities for wheat in different provinces, have been calculated across the first to fifth development programs. Using the central limit theorem, the provinces have been clustered. The results show that the government’s uniform support policies have created inequality in different provinces. Specifically, in the first to fifth development programs, the highest budgetary support per kilogram of wheat production was allocated to Mazandaran (812 rials), Tehran (479 rials), southern Kerman (517 and 669 rials), and Ilam (1896 rials). This disparity in provincial support is due to various factors, such as farm management practices, input consumption patterns, technological level, and productivity. Based on these findings, it is recommended that budgetary support be allocated based on provincial clustering so that supportive policies are adjusted in a way that provinces with higher relative advantages can benefit more effectively from these supports.
