The survey on aquaculture capacity of Ghar-Khatlo dam reservoir in Zanjan province

Qhar-khetlu dam reservoir is in the central part of Ijrud city of Zanjan province with a reservoir volume of 500000 and a water volume of 900000 cubic meters, covering an area of 6 hectares and containing 3500 hectares of the watershed in order to control seasonal floods, drinking water in the village, strengthening the aquifers of the area and As a water supply in the dry seasons, 120 hectares of agricultural land was planted for irrigation.Study of this water source with the aim of measuring biological and non-biological factors, determination of aquaculture production and Fish release capacity and fishing capacity for optimal use of fishery management in Zanjan province was done in 2006.The results of hydrochemical analysis of the water of Qharkhetlu dam reservoir showed that the minimum and maximum temperature of water ranged from 4.5 to 26 ° C, the pH of the water was 4.7 to 8.8, the dissolved oxygen was 7.7 to 12.2 mg, the total water hardness fluctuation was 154 194 mg/L and electrical conductivity of 272 to 390 micrometers per square centimeter, the water transparency was 25 to 380 centimeters.In this study, six phytoplankton classes with 31 genera and 3 classes of zooplankton with 14 genera were obtained. The abundance of phytoplanktons was counted from 150,000 to 206,000 per liter, and the average chlorophyll a, 1.10 micrograms, was estimated. The frequency of zooplanktons were 32 to 132 per liter, as well as the mean of 544 per square meter of macrobenthos.By comparing of the physical, chemical and biological factors and also the results of previous studies of this water source, the conditions for the introduction of warm water and cold water fishes including silver carp, big head carp, rainbow trout out and native fishes including species of Barbus and Capoeta genera are suitable. Estimation of Qhar-khetlu dam reservoir production is 80 kg/ha and its production capacity is 484 kg per year

Investigating the Relationship between Dehloran Agricultural Production Cooperatives Success and their Managers’ Entrepreneurial Spirit and Commitment to Cooperation Principles

This study aimed at investigating the relationship between dehloran agricultural production cooperatives' success and their managers’ entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to cooperation principles. It was an applied research interms  of purpose and a descriptive research interms of data collection. Twenty managers of 5 top agricultural cooperatives in Dehloran were surveyed. Data were collected by using a questionnaire which its validity was confirmed by a panel of experts and Cronbach alpha indicated its reliability acceptable (0.81). Conducting spearman coefficient analysis, results revealed that there was a significant relationship between agricultural cooperatives success and the level of their managers’ “internal control” and “tolerance ambiguity” as well as their commitment to “democratic control”, “Education, training and information” and “concern for the community” principle of cooperation
