Abstract

Iran is one of the major producers of caviar, and caviar is one of the most important export products in the country's fisheries sector. Therefore, due to the importance of its place in the country's economy and non-oil exports, the caviar export and its influencing factors have been investigated during the years 1991-2020. The data analyzed in this research were collected from the statistics published by the Iranian Fisheries Organization, the statistics of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture, the Central Bank and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. The results showed that there is a long-term relationship (the existence of co-accumulation) between the variables of Iran's caviar export and Iran's export price, average world price, exchange rate, world export amount and sanctions. Also, the results of the Granger causality test showed that all factors affecting the amount of export have a significant one-way effect on the amount of caviar export. Therefore, due to the importance of caviar export as a source of foreign exchange for the country and in order to maintain the country's position in international trade, it is recommended to provide scientific and technical support from research centers in this field in order to improve the productivity and increase the production efficiency of sturgeon fry. Also, the ECM coefficient showed that 98% of the imbalances in Iran's caviar exports are resolved in each period.
