renewable resourceIran has many mining companies that mines an addition of oil and gas, that includes chromite, lead, zinc, copper, coal, gold, tin, iron, manganese, ferrous oxide and tungsten. The people of Iran take many resources from their fertile lands. In 1957 the government of Iran made a law that divided the resources found in the soil of Iran into three categories. The first category is stone and marble. Quarries that produce stone for building are found largely throughout the land. However, marble is found around the land in a much smaller quanity. Private landowners can use anything found in this category. The second category includes metal ores, precious stones, salts, and coal. Most of the metals, such as iron, are mined in the Arak and Southern Kerman Provinces. Other metals that can be mined in Iran are: manganese, zinc, copper, lead, chromium, rock salt, sulfates, and other elements. Landowners must receive a license from the government and pay steep taxes to use these materials. Finally, the last category contains oil, gas, and radioactive substances. No landowner is allowed to keep these materials; they must be handed over to the government.
renewable resourceIn Iran, 65 percent of their fod had to be imported. Wheat, rice, and barley are Irans majot crops. The total wheat and rice production fails to meet domestic foor requirements but making some imports were necessary. Other crops like potatoes, legumes (beans and lentils), vegetables, friuits,sugar beets, robacco, corn,lentils, raisins, dates fodder plants (alfalfa and clover, oil seeds, nuts pistacios, almonds, and walnuts), cotton, sugarcane, and silf is favested from silkworn cocoon and tea. Livestock products include lamp, beef, goat meat, poultry, eggs, milk, butter, cheese, wool, and leather. 10% of the land is used for growing crops of the agriculture land and 12 % of agriculture land is used as a pasture for sheep, goats, cattle, camels, water buffaloes, donkeys and horses. These animals make important products such as wool, milk, butter, hides, and animal fat. Altogether, farmers and animals make up agriculture.
Forestry brings the least amount of money in Iran. Iran's government owns the imber industry located in the Elburn Mountains. Most of this timber is going to be used for building homes. The next part that makes up this field is fishing, which is mainly located at the Caspian Coast for Iran and Iraq's oil development harmed the Persian Gulf fisheries. The fishing industry in Iran produces about 20,000 tons of fish that are mostly either sturgeon or salmon. Also, Iran holds half of the world's population of caviar. Together, all of these things make up a field.
nonrenewable resourceIran has two following major river basins (the Central Plateau in the middle, the Like Orumieh basin in the north-west, the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman in the west and south, the Lake Hamoun basin in the east, the Kara-Kum basin in the north-east and the Caspian Sea in the north). With a area of 424 240 km(squared), the Caspian Sea is the larges landlocked water body in the world and its surface lies about 22 metre below sea level. All these basins (except the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Omanm, are interior basins. There are several large rivers in Iran. Spring floods do great damage, while there is little water flow in summer when most streams disappear. Water is however store naturally underground, finding its outlet subterranean water canals (qanats) and springs. It can also be tapped by wells. Dams have always played and important role in Irans water reserves and long term objective of Irans water resources development plan is based on the control and regulation of water resources through dams.
