This article evaluates Iran’ s LPI and its six components/indicators for biennial periods from 2007 to 2018 and introduces some recommendations for its improvement. In comparison to other countries, Iran’ s LPI for biennial periods of the last decade (2007-2018) has been generally unfavorable. However, although it has been falling from 2007 to 2012, it has significantly been rising from 2012 to 2018. With the LPI rated from 1 (worst) to 5 (best) and the LPI scores categorized into four ascending categories of logistics-unfriendly, partial performers, consistent performers, and logistics-friendly, Iran with its LPI average score of 2. 6 (out of 5) during 2010-2018 falls under the partial performers category (low-and middle-income countries with similar constraints). Hence, a small decrease in Iran’ s LPI score may relegate it to the logistics-unfriendly category (countries with the worst LPI score or least developed countries). In this context, the four indicators with great negative effect on Iran’ s LPI have been “ ease of arranging competitively priced shipments” , “ ability to track and trace consignments” , “ frequency with which shipments reach consignees within scheduled or expected delivery times” and “ efficiency of customs and border management clearance” . In contrast, the two indicators reinforcing Iran’ s LPI have been “ competence and quality of logistics services” and “ quality of trade and transport infrastructure” . In fact, with these very levels of the latter two indicators, an appropriate re-allocation of the former four indicators may improve Iran’ s LPI status.

Information asymmetry is a phenomenon that overestimates the implementation of the terms of industrial property insurance contracts. This phenomenon occurs in the absence of information transparency, so that one of the parties to the contract has access to information that is not at the disposal of the other. Although some of the principles governing industrial property insurance contracts, such as the principle of maximum good faith, require contracting parties to provide accurate information and provide information transparency, but in cases of misconduct in one of the interlocutors, the proper implementation of contracts concluded in this area is challenged encountered. One of the consequences of this phenomenon is the negative choice of the insurer and the insurer and creates moral hazard, which has a bad effect on the economic development of a country. There are, of course, solutions to address these challenges, which is best to create information transparency through the implementation of new electronic tools in Iran's legal system. The BlockChain is a place where, having unique features and new tools, it provides the possibility of maximum transparency and causes the elimination of this phenomenon.

The purpose of the this study is to investigate the factors underpinning the adoption of date insurance in Kerman province (Bam). The study is based on a descriptive-correlational method and 2916 gardeners are considered as statistical society during 2016-2017. Using the Cochran formula, 225 gardeners are selected by systematic sampling. The content validity of the instrument is confirmed by a panel of experts, and its reliability after the preliminary test is estimated at 0. 8 using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Comparing the characteristics of the adoptive and non-adoptive gardeners using t and Mann-Whitney tests showe that there is a significant difference between the education level of two groups with 95% probability. Also, there are significant differences between adopters and non-adopters in terms of "relation with promoters and insurance experts" and "participation in cooperatives"; however, there are not significant differences in terms of "participation in educational and promotional classes", "participation in local formations", " Participation in rural council decisions "and" Participation in constructive mobilization decisions ".
