Abstract
Due to its inherent role in ensuring food security and as one of the productive sectors of the economy, the agricultural sector has a priority in receiving preferential currency. Having a preferred currency has caused the price of this commodity in the market to be multi-valued. On the other hand, the allocation of billions of dollars at a price lower than the free market price of foreign exchange to imports makes the percentage of the effect of the preferred currency on the price of commodities more important. In such circumstances, it must be determined whether the allocation of preferential or bank currency (42000Rials) to sugar has been able to be transferred to the final price of this commodity. To answer this question, time series data with monthly frequency of domestic sugar prices, official exchange rates and world prices during the years 2011: 03-2019:11 and the nonlinear pattern of Markov MSIAH regime change have been used. The results showed that during the period 2011:03-2019:11, the average monthly growth rate of the price of this product was equal to 1.5 percent. Meanwhile, during the period of implementation of the preferential exchange rate policy, the average monthly price growth rate was equal to 2.7 percent. The results also show that in the short run, the exchange rate pass-through to sugar price in the second regime was significant and equal to 5%. In the long run, the exchange rate pass-through in this regime was equal to six percent.

Abstract
The import of Barley, as one of the main inputs of animal feed, has done by a preferential exchange rate during 2018 to 2019. The main question is whether this allocation was able to be transferred to its price or not. To answer this question, time series data with monthly frequency of the price of barley, its world price and the official exchange rate during the period of Farvardin 2009 to Azar 2019 and the nonlinear model of Markov switching regime change (MSIAH) have been used. The results indicated that for the barley, the exchange rate has passed in three (3) different regimes and asymmetrically. Also, in none of the regimes, complete transition did not occur and the regimes identified were stable. In the short term, exchange rate to barley price in the first regime was significant and equal to two percent (2%). In the long term, the rate of passing in this regime was equal to four percent (4%). Due to the fact that the price of Barley, the amount and the period of passing of the preferred exchange rate have been very low and short, therefore it is suggested to refrain from re-allocating the currency with any preferential rate to this input. Since the cost of red meat production increases with the liberalization of the barley import rate, it is suggested to pay compensation to households as the final link of consumption and to help finance the producers as the demanders of imported inputs.
