Abstract

Background and objectives: In land-use planning, after the ecological and socio-economic capabilities of the land are evaluated for the level of the planning units, the prioritization of incompatible land uses and activities in terms of macro socio-economic and Political criteria at the unit level of the study area is also necessary. The purpose of this study was to investigate the application of Analytic Network Process (ANP) for prioritizing of incompatible land uses in terms of macro non-ecological criteria (economic, social and politics) and for multiple-use planning of Zagros forests. Materials and methods: This research was conducted on an area of Zagros forests on the northern slope of the mountain Kabirkouh in Badreh town of Ilam province. Initially, the list of forest multiple land uses and activities was prepared in accordance with the conditions of Zagros forests and based on Delphi technique. According to this, 11 incompatible land use or activities, including forest and range, wooded rangeland, rangeland, dry orchard, agroforestry, dry agriculture, restoration of plant ecosystem, picnics and campaigns, snow skating, rock climbing and environmental conservation, were identified and prioritized. In this regard, macro socio-economic and macro political factors of the country's natural resources were selected based on the sources of the document of the Perspective of the Islamic Republic of Iran at 1404, current rules of natural resources and general environmental policies of the country and using the Delphi technique. Based on the clustering model of the network analysis process, the priority of non-ecological factors was evaluated in terms of three criteria: economic, social and policy. In this model, the economic criterion is divided into two sub-criteria of employment and special benefit; the social criterion into four sub-criteria of local disputes, literacy rate, natural resource culture and current land uses; and the political criterion into three sub-criteria of conservation and restoration of plans, water and soil conservation and increased levels of underground aquifers; and reliance on domestic resources in the development of the country. Weighting the criteria and sub-criteria were also done by pairwise comparison based on nine numeric method. Results: Results showed that the highest priority was allocated to three tourism activities, including picnics and campaigns, snow skating and rock climbing respectively, and the lowest priority was allocated to rangeland and wooded rangeland respectively. The land uses including plant restoration, dry orchard, forest and range, environmental conservation, dry agriculture and agroforestry, were ranked from fourth to ninth priorities, respectively. Conclusion: It was concluded that, by proper use of the ANP approach which has an important ability in the network analysis of socio-economic and policy factors with numerous crossed-correlation; it can be prioritize incompatible Multiple uses of forest correctly.
