Abstract: The research aims to study the impact of economic variables on agricultural product in Iraq by identifying the key factors that contribute to enhancing agricultural growth and the obstacles that hinder its achievement. Using an autoregressive model to explain the relationship between macroeconomic variables and agricultural output, the model demonstrated an explanatory power of 91%, with significant effects from interest rates, inflation rates, and government subsidies. The researchers concluded that agricultural loans have the most significant short-term impact, followed by inflation rates, while interest rates show a statistically significant effect. The findings indicate that a 1% increase in the inflation rate leads to a reduction in agricultural output by $43.88 million, while a $1 million increase in the fiscal deficit results in a decline in output by $0.59 million. The study emphasizes the necessity of enhancing government support for agricultural outputs, adopting effective strategies to mitigate inflation and its adverse effects on agriculture, increasing investment allocations for the agricultural sector. Furthermore, it recommends improving loan programs, facilitating farmers’ access to credit, and establishing a system to monitor agricultural performance and periodically evaluate economic policies.
