The global food crisis due to the plunging production and rising prices in recent years, particularly in 2008, calls for solutions to ensure food security in most developing countries. The situation is worsened by the rising demands for food and water as consequences of the population explosion and cropLAND decline in these countries. By 2050, the world population is projected to rise to 9. 2 billion and Iran will be one of the top 20 most populated countries in the world. According to a FAO report, agricultural production must be increased by about 70% during the years running up to 2050 in order to meet the projected food requirements. Finally, study has shown that more than 60% of the present population in Asia (particularly in South and South-West Asia) and a quarter of the African population suffer from malnutrition. The present paper explores the literature on SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT and some of its components such as conservation agriculture, proper crop rotation, and proper MANAGEMENT of soil organic content as the cornerstones of agricultural production toward food security.

The monitoring and assessment of LAND use/LAND cover (LULC) changes are critical issues in SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT. The aim of the study was to assess LULC changes in the watershed using LANDscape metrics. The study utilized remote sensing and FRAGSTAT to analyze satellite imagery and LANDscape metrics from 1991 to 2021. Eight metrics were employed to quantify changes in the LANDscape structure and identify areas of potential degradation. The study applied the VIKOR method for vulnerability priority assessment, emphasizing the importance of considering multiple LANDscape metrics in the evaluation. The study highlighted the significance of each metric and its impact on LAND use sustainability, employing a weighted approach. The results indicated significant changes in the LULC of the Kashkan watershed over the 30-year period. The primary changes included a decrease in forest cover (18. 35%) and an increase in rangeLAND (20. 85%). LANDscape metrics revealed that these changes resulted in decreased LANDscape connectivity and increased fragmentation. The vulnerability assessment showed that forests and rangeLANDs have the highest and lowest vulnerability, respectively, with values of 0. 997 and 0. 074. The study underscores the importance of monitoring and assessing LULC changes for SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT. The LANDscape metrics used in this study provide a useful tool for quantifying changes in LANDscape structure and identifying areas of potential degradation. This information can be utilized by LAND managers and policymakers to develop effective strategies for SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT.

Reuse of treated wastewater is becoming a common source of extra renewable water source in regions and countries with water-scarcity. The expansion of the urban population and the increase in the sewage networks will increase the amount of municipal wastewater. The produced wastewater can become a source of renewable water that can be used for various nonpotable reuse, specifically. In the current research study, the newly established Pardis city has been selected as a case study for using recycled water (reuse of treated wastewater) for SUSTAINABLE water resources MANAGEMENT. To accomplish the overall objective of the study, GeoLAND method for water reuse is employed. For this study the use of regional wastewater facility instead of centralized wastewater treatment facility as well as the related capital cost savings, job opportunities, and environmental benefits were evaluated. Statistical analyses were performed based on multiple factors and classification indicators. The results showed that the highest amount of savings and financial surplus income, 36. 17% and 31. 25%, respectively, of the overall savings and income as the main priority and recommendation in place of water source will occur in the study area. On the other hand, savings and financial surplus for the group that does not need to use treated wastewater is only for 1. 15% of the total study area which stands as the last priority. Results obtained from this study revealed that prioritization of decentralized use of wastewater for urban areas was a highly efficient plan for a significant part of residential areas, while reducing water consumption along with economic savings and increasing regional income happened. The proposed study can also be used as a SUSTAINABLE water resources MANAGEMENT decision-making tool for Pardis city officials.

Withdrawal of ground water resource in Rafsanjan plain is about 450 million cubic meters in 1974. In this year, according to the hydrological calculation approximately, 98 million cubic meters of capacity permitted the table, has been added to harvest. Therefore, Rafsanjan region been forbidden region since 1974. According to statistics data, in 2003, extraction rate of ground water are recorded about 750 million cubic meters. But approximately 250 million cubic meters per year had added to the harvest in stored groundwater. For this rezone the level of groundwater falls down 80 cm per year. This has been introduced of agent to loss of farm LAND residential areas of failure. Down the level of groundwater decreased water quality including high and rising Ec, so that not to meet the standard value. In the Rafsanjan plain the geological layers are different, then, in this region, opening layers of earth is horizontally and vertically. This phenomenon alongs with techtonic movement may be resulted to a tragic event in this area.

Background and Objective: Today, LAND governance is considered to be the most efficient way of managing LAND issues, By accepting LAND as a local resource and commodity at the urban level, the present study considers the local level as the most appropriate official institution under the banner of the central government to manage it. This study investigates the situation of urban LAND MANAGEMENT in Iran and introduces a new proposed model called the model of integrated urban LAND governance for its efficiency. Material and Methodology: This research is presented with inductive strategy and a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods at three spatial levels (Iran, Golestan province and Gorgan city). The statistical population is the main institutions in charge of urban LAND and those who refer to them in 1398. Data collection was done by documentary and field methods and for data analysis, Spearman model with Amos software and Swat method and quantitative strategic planning matrix (QSPM) were used. Findings: Inefficient institutional arrangements, lack of integration of LAND-related institutions contribute to poor LAND governance and efficiency of measures. The analyzes showed that independent variable of agreement-oriented integration has total effects on dependent variable and the proposed research model and SUSTAINABLE urban LAND MANAGEMENT have a statistically significant relationship. Discussion and Conclusion: The results showed that urban LAND MANAGEMENT in Iran is centralized, closed and inefficient, with local levels acting as agents. themodel of integrated urban LAND governance based onthe formulation of a clear meta-institutional vision and integrated meta-strategic strategic policy was proposed withthe coordination and consensus of allstakeholders andactors by delegating some government powers tothe lowest level of local institutions with the necessary capacity building.

SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT is considered a SUSTAINABLE way to combat the threat of various forms of LAND destruction and erosion. However, there is little information on the factors affecting the household's decision to implement SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices. In the present study, the factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices by rural households applied in Sib and Souran county have been analyzed. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of descriptive-analytical method. The statistical population of the research is the Rural Households of the Sib and Soran area, which was selected by 230 sample formulas by random sampling method. Questionnaires and interviews were used to collect data and information. Descriptive statistics were used to identify SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT practices. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to identify the factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices by rural households. The results of the methods used showed that in this area more basic and simple methods do not require much cost and capital. Using animal/ animal fertilizer, use of organic and green fertilizers, plowing the LAND for the slope of the LAND, creating an empty and rocky dam at the top of the LAND, and creating earthy seals and the most important SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT methods in the Sib and Souran area. The results of the structural equation model factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT methods by rural households also showed that the properties of agricultural farms with a coefficient of 0.79 had the most impact on the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices in the Sib and Soran area. The factor of Agricultural Ecology Properties with an Impact Coincision of 0.73, Organizational Support and Infrastructure Factor with an Impact Coincision of 0.69, Household Properties of 0.68, and Social and Economic Properties Factor with an Impact of 0.65, are subsequent. Extended Abstract 1-Introduction The study area of the present study is Sib and Souran county in Sistan and Baluchestan province. In the county of Sib and Souran, the income and livelihood of many rural households is dependent on LAND. Due to the drought and lack of water in the area, the lack of sufficient nutrient supply, and the reduction of soil organic matter, causes soil erosion, which can affect the quality of agriculture and consequently affect the income of farmers. As a result, the use of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices can reduce soil erosion and thus increase the efficiency of agricultural products, which is essential for rural development in this area. One of the necessities for the use of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT is to identify the factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices. To increase SUSTAINABLE agricultural productivity, a good understanding of the causes and factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT methods from the first and most important forecasts to use SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices and beneficiaries is resources. Therefore, in the present study, the present study examines the factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices by rural households in the Sib and Souran area. 2-Materials and Methods The present study has been part of applied research. In terms of collection/ collection of research information and data, research is a type of research and research. In terms of research methods, it also includes descriptive-analytical methods. The theoretical foundations and literature of the research have been developed and presented through the study of the library. The data collection and field data collection tool has also been a freelance researcher and interview. The statistical population of this study has been farmers in the area and city of Sib and Soran in Sistan and Baluchestan province. To specify the research samples, a simple random sampling method was selected using the Cochran formula. Accordingly, 230 samples were selected. Descriptive statistics and structural equation models (SEM) and Amos graphics software were used to analyze information and investigate SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices. The validity of the questionnaire is measured using content validity. Cronbach's alpha test was also used to evaluate the reliability of the measurement tool. 3- Results and Discussion The results of the factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT methods showed that all 5 factors can have an impact on the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT as a hidden factor. In the meantime, the agent of farms and properties of agricultural fields and LAND with a factor load of 0.79 has had the most impact on the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices. Characteristics of Agricultural LAND Ecology with a Factor and Coincision of 0.73, Organizational Support and Infrastructure with a Factor Coefficient and Coefficient of 0.69, Factor Household Characteristics and Coefficient of 0.68, Social and Economic Characteristics The factor load and the coefficient of 0.65 are subsequent. Standard estimates of the factors affecting the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT methods showed that the properties of agricultural farms and the direct impact of 0.79 had the most impact on the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices in the county of Sib and Souran. The results of indirect effects and non-standard estimates Model Factors Affecting SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT methods showed that out of 25 micro-variables (index), most indirect effects related to variables such as experience and native farmers' knowledge, number of family/ family workforce, Type of ownership, credit and banking access, soil fertility and LAND slope, cash money; Capital and farmers' income and costs have been the implementation of MANAGEMENT practices. 4- Conclusion The results of the methods used showed that in this area more basic and simple methods do not require much cost and capital. Using animal/ animal fertilizer, use of organic and green fertilizers, plowing the LAND for the slope of the LAND, creating an empty and rocky dam at the top of the LAND, and creating earthy seals and the most important SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT methods applied in the Sib and Souran county. The results of the structural equations model also showed that the factors of agricultural farms had the most impact on the implementation of SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT practices in the Sib and Souran area. The factor of agricultural ecology properties, the cause of organizational support and infrastructure, the factor of household characteristics, and the factor of social and economic characteristics have been subsequent.

Substantial population growth and urbanization arbitrarily banning the exploitation of natural resources and environmental factors adversely impacts the environment and resources necessary for nutrition and healthy life styles. The secret to success and survival of ecosystems depends on a stable, continuous monitoring of the environment. The SWOT model has been developed to consider all internal and external aspects. In this study, to analyze LAND use and cover changes in Taleghan, we have used SWOT as a qualitative approach to develop SUSTAINABLE LAND MANAGEMENT. Taleghan is a town in Alborz Province located within the Taleghan watershed. Referring to the SWOT analysis matrix SUSTAINABLE tourism development was presented as the best strategy for SO, imposed regulations of soil and water pollution by the health centers as the best strategy for ST, avoidance of LAND use changes as the best strategy for WO, and finally the range MANAGEMENT plan to reduce surface both runoff and soil erosion as the best strategy for WT. However, the proposed diagram of sustainability (IUCN) has two indicators, the ecosystem's quality and acceptance and lifestyle desirability which is based on the ecological features and indigenous areas rooted in public participation. Based on the above indicators, the presented solutions are more realistic which prevent disturbance to the ecosystem's natural balance which leads to SUSTAINABLE development, notable in the marshes of Taleghan.

The aim of this study is to explore the revenue generation scenarios of Iranian championship sports for the next 15 years with the aim of foresight in sports economics. In this research, futurism with scenario scenario approach based on intuitive logic method has been used and to design scenarios, trend analysis method and uncertainties and six-stage integrated scenario model have been used. The participants of the present study included 31 domestic and foreign stakeholders of Iranian heroic sports who were selected based on purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews and open-ended questionnaires. Based on the findings, the analysis of the 29 main factors eventually led to the production of two key uncertainties: "allocation of budget line independent of oil revenues from international economic openings" and "institutionalization of sports ecotourism based on the expansion of the federation's information and communication system. As a result, it was found that even if international economic and political openings do not take place, sports tourism-based planning by federations of different disciplines, if accompanied by professional and ongoing marketing, can lead to SUSTAINABLE revenue generation in Iranian championship sports.
