Analysis of structural model results barriers to development in the stone trade and industry

Lorestan province with 21.5% of the country's decorative stones reserves has abundant capacities and abilities in the rock industry, but has poor performance in the field of mining, processing and sale, which has led to a decent position in global and even domestic markets. Not have Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the barriers to success in the Lorestan rock industry. The statistical population of the study was the owners and owners of active units of Lorestan rostrum. 160 people were selected using census method to respond. The data gathering tool was a closed-answer questionnaire which was used to measure the reliability of its variables using Cronbach's alpha. Using a structural equation modeling technique,while investigating the barriers to the success of the stone industry, a reliable model for predicting the barriers to the success of the stone industry was presented. It turned out The findings showed that the weakness in packaging (r = 0.11), lack of government support (r = 0.11), lack of expertise and technical knowledge (r = 0.07), along with crude (r = 0.04) The direct and significant effects, and the weaknesses in planning (r = 0.001) and the traditional management (r = 0.008), the indirect effect (through crude) on the obstacles to the success of the stone industry. Therefore, the final model resulting from the above variables has explained 39% of the variance of the barriers to the success of this industry.
