Abstract

The process of production in agricultural sector has always been encountered with various RISKs, solely because production in this sector is largely dependent on climate condition and geographical location. On the other hand, is been vulnerable to plant pests and disease. For these and other reasons RISK management activities are very important in agriculture. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to investigate factors influencing RISK management among the farmers of the rain fed wheat. The research design was a survey and descriptive-correlational techniques were used. The statistical population consisted of all RAIN FED WHEAT FARMERs in Tafresh region (N=14,824). A proportional stratified sampling method was used to select the 295 RAIN FED WHEAT FARMERs as samples of the study (n=295). Cochran’s formula was used to determine the sample size of this study. Finally, 241 questionnaires were gathered and analyzed (return rate= 81.7%). The descriptive statistics results showed that majority of respondents (75%) were at a “moderate and poor’ level of RISK management. The bivariate correlation results indicated that there was a significant correlation between education levels, extent of social participation, access of communication channels, the level of non-agricultural income and RISK management, respectively. The result of the multivariate linear regression indicated that 37.4% (R2=0.374) of the variance in the RISK management activities could be explained by farmers' income and their access to communication channels.
