Autoregressive distributed lag model, one of the co-integration analysis methods, was used to reach the aim. Export supply function of pistachio to German, Unit Kingdom and Italy and export supply of dates to German, Unit Kingdom and Turkey were estimated. The results indicated that exchange rate volatility has different effects on export of the crops to understudy countries.
