Abstract: ABSTRACT Dynamic Regression Model is that model which takes the time into account. The modeling of the Dynamic Regression shows how the output is resulted from the input. This depends on the following: 1. The relation of the lag time with the input and output. 2. The time composition for the turbulence series (random error) In order provide mathematical model, the relative model was identified by specifying the linear transformation function. The relative model of the transformation function was of the degree (0, 0, 1). When the values of turbulence series were examined by using auto - correlation and partial auto correlation coefficients, it is found that all of the coefficients were insignificant and that consequently proves the turbulence series which is a series of random residuals, so that:- N‌t=at.

Abstract: ABSTRACT It is possible however to forecast much greatly in future of certain economy in the light of structural formulation, relative importance and other various economic activities.

This importance comes to consider the conditions of agricultural markets in so many developing countries. This will lead to the emergence of unbalances in allocating agricultural resources. These resources may work far from the standards or measurements of economic efficiency. These indicators have led to the adjustment of agricultural production in the term of a matrix of problems and the result is limited in front of agricultural development and its probability in many of these countries. Through historical experiments of advanced states, we have relied upon a hypothesis which tells that there are a number of indicators inside agricultural sector vary with respect to the nature of its effect upon relative importance of the agricultural product .Therefore, it is expected that these economic variances have appositive effect the same in developing states. .
