Abstract
Considering the importance of agriculture for Iran economy and Khorasan provinces, present study has been done for investigating interaction and linkages between the agricultural sector with other economic sectors in Khorasan provinces. In order to do so, Khorasan Input-Output table for 1380 and hypothetical extraction method has been used. The results indicofe that two activities of agriculture (cultivation, horticulture sector and animal husbandry, aviculture, sericulture and apiculture sector) are key sectors and have great linkages with other economic sectors. In addition, these activities have stronger forward linkages with “Manufacture of food products and beverages, Manufacture of tobacco products”, “Manufacture of textiles” and “Restaurants”. Further, these have stronger backward linkages with “Road transport”, “Wholesale and retail trade; repair services” and “Manufacture of chemicals and chemical products”.
