Manufacturing industries of agricultural products, which constitute a considerable part of different countries’ economies, are seeking new profitable opportunities by increasing competition at the international level. Organizational agility is new method and philosophy of production that seeks to react effectively to the variable and unpredictable environment and to utilize the changes as chances for organizational progress and profitability. In this regard, the present research aims to survey the capabilities of organizational agility in complementary and convertor agricultural industries. For this purpose, based on organizational agility literature, four variables- responsiveness, competency, flexibility, and quickness- were examined as the agility capabilities. The research method was descriptive, and the statistical population included 142 managers of Agricultural industries in East Azarbaijan Province during the year 2012. The study sample was calculated 117 using simple random sampling technique. For data collection, the questionnaire was designed by some scholars. The data was analyzed by means of descriptive statistics, inferential statistics and fuzzy set theory. The results showed that the complementary and the convertor agricultural industries of the province have obtained scores higher than the average for the capabilities of responsiveness, flexibility, and quickness but a lower one for the capability of the competency. With regard to the fact that compiling the strategic vision, technological ability, and introducing the new products are among the main components of achieving competency, it is suggested that managers of this sector should, in order to reinforce competency in agricultural industries, pay special attention to compiling the strategic vision, making use of information technology, and using the new opportunities of the market to introduce the new products.
