Resumo: | Agricultural policies in Iran have aimed at achieving self-sufficiency in food productions through the government various policies. The aim of this paper is to examine the current  level  of  protection  which  may  exist  in   agricultural  sector  in  Iran  and  other  countries. The results indicate that the PSE in Iran is much higher than the OECD and  is close to Japanese and Korean PSE percentage (i.e. 58 and 64 percent). The broadest indicator of support representing the sum of transfers to agricultural producers (PSE), expenditure for general services (GSSE), and direct budgetary transfers to consumers, reached  83  billion  Dollars  per  year  in  2001-2005  which  is  almost  equivalent  to 13.4 percent of Iran’s GDP in this period. This is much higher than the OECD average and suggests a relatively high burden of agricultural support on Iran’s economy.
