Abstrakt: Sustainability of agricultural and farm production systems is an important issue, particularly in countries which heavily rely on this economic sector. Actually, so many methods have been proposed to assess sustainability of such agricultural systems from various viewpoints. Nonetheless, limited attention has been paid to find the important key factors in agricultural sustainability in Iran. Although researchers often recognize ecological factors as the main element affecting sustainability, but also the other factors play an important role in the sustainability of an agricultural and farming system, instead. This study proposes a method to analyze the determinants of sustainable crop production, and applies it to wheat cultivation in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, Iran. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
