In order to analyse the effective factors contributing to land fragmentation, required data were collected by questionnaire from 151 farmers who were selected through a stratified random sampling design from 12 villages of Ramjerd yek subdistrict of Marvdasht Country. Factor analysis was used to identity explanatory factors of land fragmentation. The variables of natural-farming, socio-cultural, Economic and physical factors explained 73.5 percent of variation of the agricultural land fragmentation. Regression analysis showed the household average annual income, per capita arable land, size of land rented by household, labour force of household, family size, number of crop planted by household and size of land rented out explained 75.5% of the variation.
