The human resources of each country determine the socio-economic development process of that country. As a result, the optimal use of human resources of any country is considered as a strategicgoal of development. The low productivity of the labor force in the agricultural and natural resources sector is largely due to the lack of a serious and basic plan for inves tment, infras tructure reform and agricultural development in the country. There are other social reasons, which can be mentioned as the person's lack of interes t in the field, the lack of acceptance of rural life, the dis tance between theoretical and practical learning. The exis tence of this conflict in the large number of unemployed graduates of the agriculture and natural resources sector, on the one hand, and the lack of employment of these graduates in the relevant sector, on the other hand, shows the lack of proper planning and unders tanding in the decision-making bodies of different management levels in the country. The purpose of this research, which is a qualitative research of a narrative type with an analytical method and in terms of document data collection, with a non-experimental model, is to es timate the educated manpower of the country's natural resources sector. In order to achieve this goal, firs tly, the admission s tatus of s tudents and graduates in natural resources fields during the years 1389-1400 was inves tigated. Then, to process and analyze the extracted data, ups tream documents and macro s trategies in the natural resources sector of the country were used by the ratio density pattern method in our qualitative view with the opinion of the focal group members, required manpower and university educated people for the academic year 1402-1403. In this research, the required manpower for the academic year 1403-1404 was es timated at different times. The results of the data analysis show that there is a significant difference between the actual needs of the department and the composition of universities. Considering the immense development of agricultural and natural resources higher education centers in accordance with the increase in population in the 80s, the quantitative and qualitative organization of colleges and universities in the current situation can be one of the approaches faced by the Minis try of Science, Research and Technology>

Tof citrus education of researchers at the Mazandaran Agricultural Research and Training Center This study sought to determine the extent to which intellectual capital affects the performance of researchers in the Mazandaran Agricultural Research and Training Center in the field of citrus training. This research is considered as an exploratory descriptive research in terms of applied purpose and as a descriptive research in terms of visibility. The statistical population also included all helper researchers, numbering 146 people, of which, using Cochran's formula, 110 people were selected as a sample, and with the proportional allocation formula, the share of each center in each city from the sample volume was determined and calculated. To formulate the theoretical framework of the research, the method of documentary study and search through electronic sources and to collect data through interviews and standard intellectual capital questionnaire based on Bontis and Holland model and a researcher-made questionnaire of educational performance has been used. For data analysis, correlation matrix, diagnostic factor analysis, sequential regression and modeling of structural equations were used using SMART-PLS software. The results showed The coefficient of intellectual capital path on the performance of helper researchers was equal to 0.245 and the value of t was equal to 2.637. Path analysis showed that at the error level of P = 0.05, intellectual capital has a positive and significant effect on the performance of researchers in the Mazandaran Agricultural Research and Training Center in the field of citrus production.

The principle of effective protection and exploitation of existing resources and inputs, is the one of the basic principles of sustainable development agriculture. For this purpose, education and empowerment of agricultural development stakeholders is a top priority for countries. Passive defense has been an important part of civilian defense and its subject area is deliberate external threats. This issue is of great importance in the agricultural sector due to the wide range of intentional external threats. In the meantime, the role of human resources in achieving the principles and implementation of passive defense objectives in the agricultural sector is more than other influential factors. The purpose of this study was to determine the strategies for increasing the knowledge of the Ministry of agriculture- Jahad staff. The research method was survey and the instrument was questionnaire. The statistical population was the experts of the Ministry of Agriculture - Jahad (N=261). They were selected by systematic random sampling method (n=145). The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by its external validity and reliability by calculating Ordinal Theta coefficient. SmartPLS and Stata software were used for data processing. The results of Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) test showed that planning and provision of resources, appropriate training, incentives and points, administrative structure adjustment and field visits were among the most important strategies to enhance the level of passive defense knowledge of the Ministry of Agriculture Jahad experts. The results of enter regression analysis also showed that age and familiarity with passive defense goals had significant effect on increasing knowledge of experts.
