The results of regression test on the effect of economic factors on the resilience of rural communities in Sistan region indicate that the degree of multiple correlation between Economic factors and resilience is equal to the coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.003) which shows that Economic factors have no effect on the productivity of villagers in the Sistan region.

Population growth, information technology changes, climate change, quantitative and qualitative changes in water and economic developments of the 21st century have greatly affected the rural economy. So that managing the rural economy against these changes and shocks requires recognizing the dynamic capacity of its constituents. The research method is based on the purpose of the user and the type is descriptive and analytical. This research was conducted in 1398 with the aim of researching the sustainability of the rural economy of the central district of Urmia. The method of collecting is documentary and field information. The statistical population of the study was 9305 households from which 385 people were selected as a sample through Cochran's formula. The sampling method was simple random. Data collection tool was a questionnaire based on variables (agricultural economy, services and industry) in Likert scale. The results show that services and industry activities have contributed to the dynamics of the rural economy that have been somehow dependent on agriculture. Tourism and nature tourism in the services, handicrafts and leather and furniture industries are heavily dependent on farming and livestock activities, which, in the eyes of the people, drive the economy of the village. In these activities, production, cost and production diversification have made a major contribution to the sustainability of the rural economy, ensuring that the rural economy in the region is sustained.

Combining entrepreneurship and ecotourism is one of the best ways to diversify the economies of communities, especially rural areas, to create jobs and generate wealth and prosperity. And when agriculture alone is not able to provide the job opportunities needed by young people, it creates new job opportunities in industry and services. The purpose of this study is to identify the components, indicators and their effects in order to properly manage and implement "ecotourism entrepreneurship" in Azarshahrchay valley and make maximum use of the potential of this region. In this regard, in this study, first the standard indicators of ecotourism entrepreneurship development were extracted through library resources. Then, using Micmac software, which is designed to perform complex cross-matrix calculations in future research and study of quality indicators, the relationship and impact of each of the components in the field of entrepreneurship was determined. Judgments about the impact of each indicator on trends in this software were made based on interviews, questionnaires and field studies. The statistical population of the study is the residents of the villages of Azarshahrchai valley, especially the owners of ecotourism-related businesses. Findings show that the general entrepreneurial environment of ecotourism in the region is unstable due to lack of proper planning, weak legislation and long and tedious investment administrative process. The results suggest that "geographical diversity" as a potential for the development of ecotourism entrepreneurship in Azarshahrchai Valley, for reasons such as economic barriers, weak legislation, lack of bank credit to encourage entrepreneurship and inadequate administrative system and long and tedious bureaucracy, The syntax is not used well. To the extent that components such as the clarity of laws, the protection and encouragement of laws, bank credit and income as incentives are more than "geographical diversity". Also, among the effective socio-behavioral characteristics of entrepreneurs, the effect of "risk-taking" is more than success. And this means entrepreneurship in the Azarshahrchai valley is facing a lot of risk.
