Abstract

There are several factors cause WINTER RANGELANDS degradation. This degradation has not been addressed particularly in socio-economically. Moreover, the role of degradation in natural resources has not been determined. Thus, in policy making and planning it is necessary to pay attention to both human and physical factors in natural resources in particular rangelands. The object of this study was determining the SOCIO-ECONOMIC FACTORS which were associated with WINTER RANGELANDS degradation of Joybar city. The statistical population consisted 92 rangeland users from 6 custom units (Samane Orfi) Anarpa, Paeinrud, Chaftsar, Anarmarz, Futamsophla, Moshk-abad. The 74 rangeland users (as samples) were determined by Cochran formula. For collecting data questionnaires were used. The questionnaires were filled on the basis of interviews. Questionnaire validity and reliability was done by specialists' views and Kronbach alpha coefficient (0.635).Totally questionnaires were filled randomly by the experts of that region. Responses were analyzed by SPSS20 software after extracting and grouping in Excel. Results indicated that among socio-economic indices which were effective in decreasing the level of winter rangeland, only the economic index related to the change of the rangeland users’ lifestyle was significant. Also there was a significant and positive relationship between the variables of this index and winter rangeLAND DEGRADATION at the level of 95 percent. Moreover, the variables determined 86% of the dependent variable variance. The results of the comparison of the means of variables from the perspectives of local reviewees showed there was a significant difference among the variables at the level of 1%. The results of regression analysis showed that the more effective factors on winter rangeLAND DEGRADATIONs were "common utilization effects, land use change, competition in increasing number of livestock and poverty and revenues.
