تعیین اولویت‌های توسعه‌ای بخش کشاورزی استان یزد بر اساس رهیافت مدل برنامه‌ریزی راهبردی

The experiences of institutions and companies, including state organizations, during recent decades indicate that achieving great goals, as well as properly responding the requirements of beneficiaries in turbulent environments of the modern era will not be realized, unless under the auspices of strategic planning. With regards to the significant role and position of agriculture sector in the life and economy status of Yazd province, this research tries to work out the developmental perspective and strategies for agriculture sector in the province using the strategic planning model. Therefore, a desirable vision was formulated for the sector through the use of the contemporary process of strategic management. Moreover, the external and internal factors as well as the beneficiaries of the agricultural sector were identified to depict the strategic status of the sector and the success vision approach was taken to devise the strategies needed. Finally, the mission of the province’s agriculture sector was rewritten on the formulated perspective. The research results show that in the present situation, the effects of threatening and devastating external factors and internal weaknesses exceed the favorable strengths and opportunities of the agricultural sector to achieve the desired vision. Being located in the strategic region number 4, i.e. the dangerous area, will require that highly defensive strategies are adopted. According to the mission worked out, the agricultural sector is supposed to hit its visionary targets through 13-fold strategies, emphasizing the promotion of the welfare and social status of farmers, justice-oriented and sustainable development principles.
