چکیده

صادرات کشاورزی ایران در سال‌های اخیر رشد قابل توجهی داشته است. در این میان محصولات زراعی (کد 07) به دومین گروه مهم صادرات بخش کشاورزی ایران در سال‌های اخیر تبدیل شده است. با این وجود مطالعات اندکی به بررسی ظرفیت‌های صادراتی محصولات زراعی پرداخته‌اند. از این رو هدف این مطالعه بررسی مولفه‌های اثرگذار بر صادرات محصولات زراعی و سنجش کارایی صادرات ایران است. به منظور دستیابی به هدف، الگوی جاذبه مرزی تصادفی براساس داده‌های تابلویی متوازن برای 21 کشور در دوره زمانی 2021-2001 برآورد شد. نتایج بیانگر این است که اندازه اقتصادی و فیزیکی بازار هدف اثری مثبت و معنی‌د‌ار بر صادرات محصولات زراعی ایران داشته‌اند. همچنین مرز مشترک میان ایران و شرکای تجاری و تحریم‌های اقتصادی دارای اثری مثبت و معنی‌دار بر صادرات محصولات زراعی بوده است، در حالی‌که فاصله جغرافیایی میان ایران و کشورهای واردکننده اثری منفی بر صادرات داشته است. نتایج کارایی نشان داد که در دوره زمانی 2015-2021 ایران در هیچ بازار هدفی دارای کارایی 100 درصدی نبوده است و در چهار کشور افغانستان، امارات متحده عربی، کانادا و عراق با کارایی بیش از 50 درصد روبرو بوده است. براساس نتایج، ایران بیشترین پتانسیل صادرات محصولات زراعی را در عراق دارد. در نتیجه، با توجه به اثر مثبت و معنی‌دار مرز مشترک و ظرفیت‌های بالای شرکای تجاری هم‌مرز با ایران، پیشنهاد می‌شود که کشورهای تجاری دارای مرز مشترک مانند عراق در اولویت صادرات محصولات زراعی قرار گیرند.

چکیده [English]

Iran’s agricultural exports have grown significantly in recent years. Cropland products (HS07) have become the second most important group in Iran’s agricultural exports over the last years. However, few studies have investigated the export potentials of cropland products. Therefore, this study aims to determine the main factors of Iran’s cropland products exports and calculate the export efficiency and potential in the trading partners. For this aim, the stochastic frontier gravity model is estimated based on balanced panel data covering 21 importing countries over the period of 2001 to 2021. The results indicated that economic and physical size of importing countries have positive and significant effect on the exports of Iran’s cropland products. In addition, common border between Iran and trading partners and economic sanctions have also positive and significant effect on the cropland products exports, while geographical distance between Iran and importing countries has negatively effects on the exports. The results of export efficiency showed that Iran does not have 100 percent efficiency in any destination market over the period of 2015 to 2021. Iran has an export efficiency of more than 50 percent only in Afghanistan, United Arab Emirates, Canada and Iraq. According to the results, Iran has the highest potential for exports of cropland products in Iraq. Hence, considering the high potentials in neighboring countries and significantly positive effect of common border partners, it is suggested that trading countries with common border like Iraq should be a top priority for the exports of cropland products.
