Investigating the Effect of Energy Return on the Value Added of Agricultural Sector in Iran

Considering energy rebound effect, real energy savings are determined by the efficiency of resources. otherwise, creation an unrealistic place occur Economic analysis and planning. Therefore, the results of the policies applied are not desirable. In this paper, energy rebound effect of agricultural sectors was estimated in two models, with Divisia index and signification coefficient of fix effect Panel model, Cobb-Douglas function showed positive effect energy consumption of agricultural sub-sectors on agriculture Value Added during 1996–2015, by least square method. The energy decomposition results of Divisia index method confirm energy intensity as the most effective factor in increasing energy consumption. energy rebound effect in two models decreasing trend respectively with an average annual 19.38% and 16.99% ,i.e., an average with 80.62% and 83.01% saved expected energy savings. Given that effect energy intensity the most important factor on increasing energy consumption in the agricultural sectors and after planning subsidies down trend energy rebound effect has decreased, therefore planning and policy making In efficiency and energy rebound effect must do more attention.
