Abstract: One
of the magnificent issues related to the trade liberalization and globalization
is to consider this point that whether the governmental support, such as paying
agricultural subsidy are definitely of deviated effects on the trade or
these paying are necessarily categorized out of the alluded policies in the
green-box.in this case-study, taking a multifunctional role for the Iranian
agriculture sector in the realm of the partial equilibrium model in mind, this
issue that the supporting such as granting subsidy to the agricultural sector
can not at all be categorized among the policies of the green-box is evaluated,
besides, without taking these roles, the positive effects at supporting such as
granting subsidy to the agriculture sector, justify the utility. On the basis
of the results of this research, it is possible to simulate the consequences of
joining to the world trade organization quantitatively.
