The findings of the research show that there is a significant relationship between independent variables and migration. But there was no meaningful relation between the amount of the land under cultivation and migration. The results show that all hypotheses are meaningful in this research that are the relationship between migration and age, , marital status, the distance between origin and destination and welfare, health, recreation and educational facilities. Also there is inverse relationship between the amount of the land under cultivation and migration. At the end, some suggestions and guidelines are provided.
