Abstract

The present study was conducted to investigate the impact of water crisis on rural migration and Food Security in rural place in Khansar. Statistics show that in recent years, the decline in rural Water Resources has led to an increase in immigration in the area, reducing the rural farmer's population and affecting the level of production and Food Security. Accordingly, the main question of this research is whether Rural Immigration from Water Resources is a threat to global Food Security? To answer this question, considering the regional attitude of the research, firstly, the status of rural Water Resources in these areas and the province was investigated and further the various definitions of Food Security were evaluated. According to theories and research indicators, 5 villages from 3 districts of central Khansar were randomly selected. Immigration index along with Food Security has been investigated and due to the close relationship between Food Security and agriculture, the social and economic conditions of villagers in this section have been considered. This indicator includes the goals and age of immigration, the environmental, economic and social conditions of rural migrants. The results of the study showed that more than 60% of immigration is migratory to rural areas where young people are at the top. Therefore, the decline in workforce in rural society and gender differences due to the high percentage of men migrating to women was the main outcome of the status of water dependent migration in rural areas. According to the results, despite the close relationship between agriculture and Food Security, the increase in rural migration due to water has reduced the production capacity of the villages and poses a serious threat to Food Security. This research is a reminder that has been done using descriptive-analytic method and considering the impact of this migration on economic conditions, the study of economic theory in this section is at the forefront. The conclusion of this study is based on the correlation coefficient of Kendall.
