Abstract:
Rural economy is one of the essential and important components in the economy of any country, and in many developed countries, attention to the rural economy is considered one of the macro goals in development programs. In our country, despite the strong environmental capacities and capabilities of villages in various economic sectors, especially production where a significant share belongs to the agricultural sector, the average share of the rural economy in the national economy, including oil, is approximately 26.5%, and excluding oil, it is approximately 22%. In total, between 20 to 23 percent of the country's productive value-added share belongs to villages. Given the importance of the subject, the general objective of this research is to examine the constraints and challenges facing economic development and to provide solutions for the economic development of border villages. This research is applied, its method is descriptive-analytical and field-based, and the statistical population consists of the border villages of Dashli Borun district, Gonbad-e Kavus county. After identifying and designing indicators, a questionnaire was prepared, and using the Cochran formula, 200 villagers and relevant officials were selected as the sample population and interviewed. Finally, using descriptive statistics and factor analysis tests in the SPSS software environment, the data were measured and analyzed. The results obtained from the factor analysis test indicated that weaknesses and challenges are classified into four categories (factors). The most important challenges for the economic development of border villages are, in order: environmental, institutional, social, and infrastructural challenges, which together explain 84.35% of the total variance, while the remaining 15.65% relates to factors that were outside the scope of the present research.
