Abstract. Having planned and efficient budget that can include all government’s operations can provide the senior managements of the country an imaginable prospect as managers in organizations plan, control, organize, lead and allocate resources; and determining favorable objective with employing the existing resources in the form of an optimal method is one of their main duties. The main aim of this study is providing a model for optimization of the allocation of credit resources to administrative, headquarter and provincial activities in Iran’s Forests, Range and Watershed Management Organization. The place domain or the population of the study is Iran’s Forests, Range and Watershed Management Organization which is a subsection of Iran’s Ministry of Jihad of Agriculture and the time domain of the study is the financial information of seven years related to year 2007 to 2013 that has been prepared yearly. In terms of aim, the method present study is applied. Also, in terms of time dimension the conducting of this study is retrospective (post-event) and in terms of the way of data collection it is descriptive-case study and in the framework of deductive-inductive reasoning. The results of this study indicate that this proposed model which is based on goal programming can fulfill the organization’s objectives despite credit limitations.
