Textile Cloth Output by Fiber Type (Cotton, Woolen, Jute, Silk)
Physical cloth output in million metres -- a different metric from iran_automotive_textile_series/textile_sector_pahlavi_to_2002.csv's spindle-count/employment/cotton-tonnage series, but the same broad topic; cross-reference both when charting the textile sector.

1953CorrelationExpected causationDecree-Law on the Exemption of Spinning and Weaving Workshops from Payment of Any Taxes and Duties
Issued in 1953 by Prime Minister Mosaddegh's government, this decree-law exempted Iranian spinning and weaving workshops with fewer than 50 looms from all taxes and duties for five years from their date of establishment.
Why this link: This 1953 bill exempts spinning and weaving workshops from all taxes and duties, a direct fiscal instrument targeting exactly the textile-manufacturing sector this chart tracks in the immediately following years.
Caveat: Textile output in this era was also driven by raw cotton supply, investment cycles and postwar demand recovery, so the exemption's isolated contribution to the output series cannot be fully separated from these factors.
Lag: Short lag, effects on output visible within 1-2 years as the exemption lowers operating costs.
