In recent years, biodiversity in Iran has been exposed to serious threats due the farmers' unordinary behaviors, including extensive use of chemicals, land-use changes, and destruction natural habitats. The basic concept present research is discover underlying constructs intention conserve at farm level. This adopts Theory Planned Behavior (TPB) uses its extended version, which moral norms environmental concerns have included, as theoretical framework. this study, data collection done by survey method through a questionnaire that analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling technique (SEM). target population consists all farmers from Bavi County Khuzestan province southwest Iran. findings indicated variables, attitude (γ: 0.164 Sig: 0.001), perceived behavioral control 0.136 subjective 0.278 0.292 0.192 significant positive effect on towards protection. addition, it was shown version TPB can improve capacity explain 22%. Based results, were identified main influencing factor, concluded policymakers emphasize construct promote safe behaviors for conserving

Drought is one of the most significant and complex climate risks, with profound effects on reducing agricultural production exacerbating poverty food insecurity worldwide in absence effective mitigation measures. Climate assessments indicate that drought will affect majority world regions future, agricultural-dependent communities bearing brunt its impacts. Therefore, managing measures to mitigate crucial this regard. This research aims (1) examine adoption status adaptation strategies (2) identify influential factors affecting Iran. The study population consisted all rural households Kerman Province (southeastern Iran). In order accurately select studied samples, calculation severity was done based Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI). research, an extended version Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), incorporating new variables including trust, self-efficacy, social influence, facilitating conditions, perceived risk, resistance use, performance expectancy, utilized as theoretical framework. Data analysis conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). results revealed farmers under conditions were categorized into five classes: Social activities (SA), Physical infrastructure management (PIM), Financial (FIM), Farm (FM), Irrigation water (IWM), Crop (CM). Furthermore, SEM indicated hypothesized relationships context significant, explained 58% variance adaptive behaviors. Lastly, considering trust had effect measures, policymakers field are recommended increase farmers' these by conducting thorough needs identifying strategies. Moreover, organizing appropriate workshops training courses can enhance awareness understanding for mitigating impacts drought.

The use of Climate Information Services (CIS) is considered the most important solution for long-term adaptation agricultural sector in dealing with challenges caused by climate change. While there are examples successful CIS programs developed countries, barriers to successfully using farmers developing countries. In this regard, research was carried out two general objectives: (i) identifying factors affecting farmers, and (ii) providing practical policies applying information Iran. A comprehensive Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) theory used as theoretical framework research, self-efficacy (SE), social norm (SN), perceived trust (PT) were added variables. This conducted structural equation modeling (SEM), a designed questionnaire data-gathering instrument. statistical population includes all Dezful city Khuzestan province (southwest Iran). findings showed that initial TAM explains 0.537 % variance farmers' behavioral intention CIS. three primary constructs included Attitude, Perceived Usefulness (PU), Ease Use (PEOU), which had positive effects on willingness. Most importantly, including SE, SN, PT variables, can increase model's ability predict intentions 13.5 %.

Floods have significantly affected many regions worldwide, imposing economic, social, and psychological consequences on human societies, in recent decades. Rural communities Iran are particularly vulnerable to floods, without effective risk reduction systems, the impact can be exacerbated. In this context, study aims investigate role of social capital enhancing resilience rural households against floods southwest Iran. The statistical population includes all Shushtar County that experienced at least once. primary tool for data collection was a questionnaire obtained were analyzed using structural equation modeling. examining situation confrontation between different groups people based state resilience, it said men, older with higher income had more deal floods. addition, results revealed components (social networks, solidarity, trust, awareness, participation action) explained 68.1% variance Overall, our findings provide new insights policymakers area, contributing flood impacts promoting safer living conditions flood-prone areas.

Abstract Agricultural extension is a key policy to accomplish sustainable agricultural development by improving farmers’ knowledge. Extension Model Sites (AEMSs) new approach for empowering farmers in Iran. Therefore, the purpose of this research economic effect assessment services AEMSs irrigated wheat production Surveys were conducted with 180 people main from throughout The tool was questionnaire, validity which examined using opinions group experts Education and Institute Data analysis done econometric One-way ANOVA through SHAZAM 11 SPSS 27 software. Results showed that significantly affected yield an average increase 0.66 t/ha. Based on results, out Marginal product value ($69 USD) provided farmers, 13.3% ($9 had been spent as cost 86.7% ($60 net profit gained farmers. Farmers’ behaviors changed result AEMs reduced input costs growing crop increased crop.
