Abstract

The main aim of current paper is the formulating and validation of suitable indices to analyzing spatial AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT inequalities in FARS PROVINCE. The study was carried out in two phases. In phase one with review of literature, regarding AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT, SPATIAL INEQUALITY, and INDICATORs, 92 AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT were identified. These indices were classified in five components as under: 1) social;-cultural, 2) structural-performance, 3) technical-management, 4) economical, and 5) infrastructural-services. These indices were validated by 57 experts who randomly wewe selected from faculty members of 6 Iranian agriculture faculties as research samples. In order to meet experts consensus and validate the INDICATORs, statistical methods such as mode, mean, standard deviation and coefficient of variation were used. In second phase, data was collected for 87 validated indices, through 2003 agricultural census and Fars statistical yearbooks for 2004 to 2007, by using Coefficient of Variation (CV), Williamson Coefficient, Theil Index and Herfindal Index, the spatial inequalities of each indictor in FARS PROVINCEs were analyzed. The result showed that, except four indices, the rest of 87 indices are appropriate for analyzing spatial AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT inequalities. Calculating inequalities coefficients also revealed that economical-financial and structural-services INDICATORs such as; agricultural credit institutes, agricultural and rural industries and rural and agricultural cooperative are in high inequality situation. The calculated composite index also showed that Shiraz county is ranked in first position while Khorambid county in the last in this context.
