Abstract
The food of the community with passive defense considerations can prevent them from vulnerability to natural disasters and threatening threats and contribute to the realization of sustainable development with the approach of the least risk of angiogenesis. Given this important aim of the present studyto evaluate the establishment of agricultural industries in Kermanshah province based on passive defense indicators. The research population consisted of 114 members of faculty members, experts and experts in the study area. Data collection method was survey and survey. Considering the multiplicity of passive defense markers affecting the assessment of the establishment of agricultural industries, multi - criteria decision making methods and SWARA model were used. For this purpose, firstly, by reviewing the literature, the indicators related to the criteria of adaptation (17 indicator), safety (9 indicator ) and afap (4 indicator) were extracted to evaluate the establishment of agricultural industries and after finalizing the criteria, weighting was carried out by experts. Data were analyzed using vikor and SWARA model in integrated approach with geographical information system (GIS).
from the perspective of passive defense considerations , in the existing position of agriculture industrial units bistoun Sugar,Rojin tak,Nazgool vegetable oil, and Ravansar feed ambush, the appropriate status , the industrial units of Bisotun and Manisan Islamabad are in poor condition and the West Islamabad sugar plant in the middle condition. in order to avoid the potential bias of industries that are in unsuitable position from the aspect of passive defense factor, the appropriate arrangements and measures are taken.
 
Extended Abstract
Introduction
The strategic decisions of I .R. of Iran has influenced in view of military threats presuppositions because of country's strategically situation in the Middle East, abundant oil & gas reserves, rich and diverse mines, conflict, threat and unrest in the recent decades in global arena, also existence of bases and crisis-oriented centers in the region, widespread pressure of United States and Israel upon Iran, imposed sanctions at various times and the urbanization of the battlefield. 31 crises from 48 known global crises have been observed due to country's geo strategic and geo economic position, geographical situation and natural disasters in Iran. One of the important aspects in development planning is applied considerations of passive defense and safety principles in view of reducing destructive and unintended effects of natural and human crises, threats, vulnerabilities, accidents and hazards in the optimal location and vicinity of industries specially agricultural industry, as well as avoiding from financial damage to facilities, municipal equipment and relevant buildings and theirs accessories. Agricultural industries as part of the national capital and important assets of our country need to continuing of infrastructure activities, facilities, equipment, arteries and removing obstacles to inappropriate placement and preparedness against natural disasters, external threats, and reducing vulnerability, make them immunize, safe and desensitize. Implementation of passive defense principles provide safety and stability of environment industrial activity against natural and unnatural disasters and human threat. Passive defense has significant role in the sense of special strategic position of Kermanshah province, different industries & theirs spaces characteristics, as well as existing of its potential threats, such as: earthquake, flooding, climate fluctuations, non-strict observance of construction laws, obsolescence of facilities, and etc., consequently negligence of conjunction between agricultural industry and the countless capabilities of agricultural development. Therefore, applying of passive defense principles and its operational strategies is an inevitable necessary in the Kermanshah province, the present study reply this question: What’s result of assessing the establishment of agricultural industries based on passive defense principles in Kermanshah Province?
 
Methodology
This quantitative research was aimed to evaluate the establishment of agricultural industries in terms of passive defense indicators by method of descriptive-analytical in Kermanshah province. The statistical population of this study was 25 faculty members, specialists and experts in the area of research topic. Data gathering method was documentary and survey. Multi criteria decision making models as Vikor and Swara utilized in order to evaluating the establishment of agricultural industries in view of multiplicity indicators on passive defense.For this purpose, initially passive defense indicators (30) were extracted which affective on evaluating establishment of agricultural industries by reviewing of the literature such Compatibility, safety and afap (17, 9, 4) respectively, and after finally the criteria determining and weighting by experts. Data were analyzed by using of Vikor & Swara techniques and geographical information system (GIS).
 
Results and Discussion
According to the results of Swara technique, the weights of the main criteria were 0.2664 for compatibility, 0.1788 for safety and 0.1027 for afap, respectively. GIS software capabilities were used to integrate and overlap the maps after weighing the effective layers in industrial location based on using of Swara & Vickor models. Semivariogram raster maps indicated that based on the standards defined degree of desirability or desirability of the place of agricultural industries establishment in the current situation, the agricultural industrial units of the sugar factory (Biston), Rojin Tak tomato paste (Kermanshah- Sarableh), Nazgol vegetable oil (Kermanshah-Mahidasht), and livestock and poultry feed (Ravansar) are in good condition, Islamabad sugar factory is in medium condition and dairy industrial units (Biston) and (Islamabad) are in poor condition.
Finding indicated: Compatibility was the first criterion for evaluating establishment of agricultural industries in favor of passive defense in Kermanshah province. The notable advantages were in accordance to passive defense standards, proximity to infrastructures such as water transmission lines, electricity, gas, transportation network, roads, raw material supply sites, rural and urban population centers, etc. in locating industrial areas. Certainly a region will have higher priority than other regions that has all facilities and equipment. The first and last priority of compatibility determined as Agro-Industrial Complex of Rojin Tak with 0.833 Si, 0.249 RI, and Qi 0.921 and Islamabad’s cooperative 121- Bahar Dalahou Manizan (dairy) with Si 5.018, RI 0.66, and Qi 0.302 respectively.
 
Conclusion
Optimal establishment determining of agricultural industries based on passive defense approach is very important, because reduce the effects of damages and vulnerabilities: natural disasters and man-made threats, prevention of possible environmental crises, as well as proper and sustainable utility of all facilities in the land area  in recent years. A suitable location for industries establishment depended on a wide range of criteria and both economic and social benefits further environmental sustainability. Continuation of agricultural large industries is considerable in favor of efficiency and profitability and theirs infrastructure existence in the productive activities. The quality of these infrastructures is affected. Proper execution of passive defense supplied economic benefits in the industries, moreover reducing the effects of the incompatible proximity of these utilities on the environment.
