Abstract :

Increasing the export of agricultural products in Iran is an essential act in order to abandon one dimensional export in Iran. It is important to note fig export among other dried fruits. Then it is significant to consider exchange rate and its fluctuation on agricultural exports. This essay investigates the long and short term transitional effect of exchange rate on export price of fig in Fars during 1351-1390. To do so self-regression patterns by broad interval(ARDL) are used.And information and statistics of FAO and central bank are analyzed by Microfit4 software. The results show that, long term variations in exchange rate are the most important factor of the export price of fig. According to these results I suggest that central bank employ money politics in order to abandon exchange rate fluctuations.
