The occupation of Iran by the Allied forces in September 1941 had severe and far-reaching political, social, and economic consequences for the country. During this period, the oil-rich province of Khuzestan came under the control of British and American forces. The presence of the Allies in the province created numerous difficulties in various aspects of people's lives, including agriculture. Furthermore, natural factors affecting agricultural production, particularly rainfall, were also unfavorable during these years, further exacerbating the agricultural situation in the province.
Using a library-based research method and a descriptive-analytical approach, this study examines the condition of agriculture in Khuzestan during the Allied occupation and investigates the measures adopted by the Iranian government to improve it. Based on historical sources, newspapers, and archival documents, the findings indicate that the Allied invasion and the consequences of their presence—including the shortage of transportation facilities, insecurity, abuses against farmers, the smuggling of agricultural products, and hoarding—together with natural factors such as insufficient rainfall during the years 1941 (except for the final months of the year) and 1944, as well as locust infestations, particularly in 1941 and 1943, inflicted considerable damage on agriculture in Khuzestan.
In response, the central government implemented a series of measures, including the enactment of regulations to combat hoarding and smuggling, the implementation of agricultural development programs, support for spring cultivation, the establishment of border marketplaces, and the deployment of agricultural experts to the province. Collectively, these policies succeeded in improving the agricultural conditions of Khuzestan to a certain extent.
