The statistical population in this study is farmers in the central sector of Orzuie (N=1200). 105 of whom were selected as research samples using random simple sampling method. The main instrument in this study was a Researcher-Made questionnaire whose validity was confirmed by a group of experts and the Cranach's Alpha coefficient was used for the reliability (0.80-0.84). The data was analyzed by using the SPSS software. The results illustrated that 54% of farmers were highly inclined to participate in the design of land consolidation.
