The results showed that decreasing crop production to the extent of 21.5 K.gr/ha has affected on life levels of rural population negatively. This situation has had financial losses to the extent of 9156603629 Rials in these areas. Also, the out coming results through Pierson regression tests has showed that there is a significant relationship between precipitation levels and the migrations of rural families to the other regions ( p= 0.010).
