Historically, Iranian agricultural activities which started with rainfed cereal are overthan 8 Thousand years old. At the present it is extended to a wide variety ofagricultural products.
Climate and Agriculture of IranIranian territory is located at a semi-arid and deserted area except for a small area atnorth and north-eastern part of the country. The average precipitation throughout thecountry is about 256 mm, consequently agriculture of Iran is strongly dependant onwater resources and its development is tied to the development which in turn dependson construction of water works and utilities. Tables (1) & (2) show the climaticconditions and rainfall of Iran.

Definition of povertyPoverty or wealth of a country depends strongly on the balance between production

Poverty or wealth of a country depends strongly on the balance between productionand population rates. These conditions have been prevalent in recent decades incountries in general and in Iran particular.In most developing countries including Iran, due to climatic conditions and scarcerainfall and shortage of water resources, the maintenance and optimum consumptionof these resources have a crucial part in poverty alleviation in rural communities.Fortunately, Iran has a good record in this field. Iran during the half past century hasestablished vast number of hydraulic utilities and water works so that the amount ofwater allocated to agriculture sector has increased from 32.90 billion cubic meters inthe year 1340 to 82 billion cubic meters in recent years.It is worthwhile to mention that between years 1981 to 1991 the rate of populationgrowth reached 4 percent, this rate in recent years has fallen to 1.20 to 1.40 byapplying birth control programs.The effect of these changes are presented in Tables (3)

The water consumed for agricultural production per capita, during the last half century, despite population increase from 24 million people to 73 million people, has a little fluctuation due to water resources development projects , However with regard to gradual technological developments, production of irrigated crops and orchards has been increased from 297 kg to 1055 kg per capita. The share of irrigated cereal also has increased about two times despite tripled population.Also total amount of rainfed and irrigated crops per capita changed proportionally.
These changes are presented in table (4).

Optimal Use of Water Resources to Struggle Against Poverty Available water resources in Iran permit maximum allocation 100 million cubic meter
9
Available water resources in Iran permit maximum allocation 100 million cubic meterof water to the agricultural sector. In this case about 10 to 11 million ha. of irrigatedcropped areas and orchards could be irrigated.On the other hand population will amount to about 90 million in 2025and continues to grow respectively with the present rate.
Table (5), show average water consumption per hectare and the proportion of growth production cubic meter of per water consumption in recent decades.

Land Ownerships and Social StructureThe population in Sahl-Abbad and Firooz-Abbad villages is 454 persons in 117
families, of which 92 families are economically active.From economical point of view residents can be classified as:
operators, owners of agricultural farm landsoperators, owners of water & landoperators, owners of waterresidents without water & land resourcesresidents without water & land resources
From land ownership point of view, %26 own about 1-3 ha., %7 own about 3-5 ha. %5own 5-10 ha, %46 own about 10-50 ha. & %16 own about 50-100 ha. Howeverlimited available water resources is not proportional to the lands ownership and infact many of these families struggle with poverty.

Water & Soil ResourcesTotal land area of Sahl-Abbad and Firooz-Abbad village is more than 2000 ha. The area of these villages is 700 ha. of which only half is under cultivation. The water resources of these lands consist of two Qanats and 13 wells with the irrigation capacity of approximately 440 lit/s, which due to economical problems, about 300 liters of this capacity is used with low efficiency.

Development Studies and services Studies and development services of This area include the following :
Pedology studies Recognizing limits and capacities of development Engineering services and land consolidation of farm lands for an area of 740 haAppropriate combination of water resources in line with improving irrigation methods and increasing irrigation efficiency. Integrating farm land as favorable economic unitsg gExecuting development projects.Organizing operational system under a farming joint stock cooperative.

Irrigation methods and the efficiency of water useIrrigation methods before executing the project were generally flood irrigation and in some cases Border Irrigation and the efficiency estimated to be %33. In development plan, while utilizing the capacity of water resources and considering local conditions, localized irrigation method is selected to irrigate farms and drip irrigation method for orchards. Localized irrigation is among pressurized irrigation methods which does not completely moisten soil surface but only moistens that part of soil where the root is located. In this method evaporation from soil surface reduces to the minimum and runoff losses becomes zero, thus irrigation efficiency increasesto the minimum and runoff losses becomes zero, thus irrigation efficiency increases to %65-%85.

Production Economics
For the command area, before executing the project, the value of farm products was estimated to be 2820 million rials. Production costs include seed, fertilizer services, machinery services, water supply and distribution costs and miscellaneous services, and at last, the manpower and wages. After executing the project, machinery services expanded, agricultural services developed, and lands were exploited in favorable economic units by applying integrated management.Table (7) presents production values before and after executing the project in
