Abstract

Introduction The agricultural sector is exposed to a variety of risks, which occur with high frequency. These include climate and weather risks, natural catastrophes, pests and diseases, which cause highly variable production outcomes. Therefore, FARMERs may make decisions every day that affect farming operations. Many of the factors that affect the FARMERs' decisions cannot be predicted with complete accuracy. Farming has become increasingly risky as FARMERs become more commercial. FARMERs need to understand risk and have risk management skills to better anticipate problems and reduce consequences.In the recent decades, PRODUCTION RISK has been one. of the important risk resources that have impressed FARMERs, lives and caused falling income & increasing vulnerability. Research findings show that the impact of PRODUCTION RISK is not limited to the stark evidence on damage costs or lost lives, but also reflects the possible impact on the development trend of a particular country.Kermanshah is one of the disastrous provinces in Iran, where agriculture is the basis of livelihood for the majority of the population. In this province, many PRODUCTION RISKs, such as low rainfall, drought, hail or heavy rains, pests and disease, breakdown or unavailability of equipment and spare parts occur every year.The main purpose of this descriptive correlational research was to determine the factors influencing the strategies used for PRODUCTION RISK management by com FARMERs in Kermanshah Township. To reach this purpose, the following objectives were considered: - to study socio-demographic characteristics of com FARMERs, - to analyze FARMERs' perception toward PRODUCTION RISK, and - to rank strategies used by com FARMERs for PRODUCTION RISK management.Methodology The population for this study was the com FARMERs of Kermanshah Township that have previous experience in com production (N=3239). A systemic sample of FARMERs was selected (n=30). AMOS and SPSS were used for data analysis.Results and Conclusion Based on the findings, most FARMERs believe that PRODUCTION RISK is an economic phenomenon that cannot be controlled. This risk resource has long-term effects on FARMERs' lives. In addition, this phenomenon will increase the feeling of anxiety & defeat in FARMERs' lives. the level of usage of new strategies for managing PRODUCTION RISK among com FARMERs was very low. Com FARMERs in Kermanshah Township manage control risk production in a moderate level. Age, land ownership, and farm income were the most important factors influencing the level of usage of strategies for managing PRODUCTION RISK.
