Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of knowledge management in the development of drought crisis management programmes from the viewpoint of agricultural beneficiaries in Iran by exploring the tacit knowledge of beneficiaries, using explicit knowledge, and integrating tacit and explicit knowledge. This survey study was conducted using a stratified random sampling method to select 384 people who were implementing drought crisis management programmes. Data were collected with a questionnaire. SPSS21 software was used to analyse the collected data. The results show a positive and significant relationship between knowledge management components and development of drought crisis management programmes. Among the six components of knowledge management, knowledge maintenance had the greatest impact on the development of drought crisis management programmes. The present study provides a deep understanding of the relationship between knowledge management and the development of drought crisis management programmes in drought-affected areas to improve agricultural activities.
