The impact of wheat price determination on its output in Iran

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the impact of wheat price determination on its output in Iran with the help of second-degree profit function during the 1997-2001 using the available data and also collecting the necessary information. We have used the apparently unrelated system of equations (SUR). The impact of product and input prices on their demands has been examined. The result shows that price has had a negligible impact on output and demand for input. This indicates that non-price variables has relatively more important role to play, suggesting that agriculture sector requires quantitative and qualitative changes to make it more price sensitive and realize its important role in efficient allocation of resource and agricultural development.
