Rural development is one of the most important issues in any society, especially in developing societies. As entrepreneurship plays an important role in improving the economic and living conditions of villagers by creating new employment opportunities and thereby generating income, the development of the villages has found a broader connection with the concept of entrepreneurship and in particular agricultural entrepreneurship than in Past. The aim of this study was therefore to examine the effects of four factors such as innovation, production, financial resources and the market on rural development through the mediating role of agricultural entrepreneurship among 42 exemplary entrepreneurs in the province of North Khorasan. The sample size also corresponds to the community size. The data collection tool was a standard questionnaire developed by Yilmaz et al. For statistical analysis of the data, the SPSS software and the bootstrap method were used in Macro Preacher and Hayes (2008) to test indirect effects. The results showed that agricultural entrepreneurship has a positive and significant impact on rural development and that there is a direct link between innovation, production, financial resources and market factors with rural development. Indirect hypotheses were examined using the macro step boot method, which confirmed all indirect hypotheses. Overall, the results show that the four factors of production innovation, production factors, financial resources and the production market have a direct and indirect influence (rural entrepreneurship) on rural development.
