دراسة اقتصادية لكفاءة إنتاج و تصنيع التمور في جمهورية مصر العربية : (دراسة حالة في الوادي الجديد)‎

الملخص EN

The research problem was represented by the following two questions: Is there a decrease in the financial indicators for the feasibility of producing and manufacturing dates in the New Valley Governorate, and is there a decrease in the productive and manufacturing efficiency of dates in the New Valley Governorate and why? The research dealt with three axes, the first dealt with the current status of production, the second dealt with some financial metrics for production and manufacturing, and the third dealt with measuring the economic efficiency of production and manufacturing.

The most important results were as follows: - The increase in the rate of change of the area planted with palm trees, the number of fruitful palm trees, the productivity of the palm tree, and the production of the total Republic by about 3.0%, 1.9%, 0.5% and 2.4%, respectively.

- The decrease in the rate of change of production for some important producing governorates, which was represented in Aswan and Sharkia by about 16.1% and 0.8%, respectively, in addition to all of Minya, Sohag, Qena and Matrouh by about 1.4%, 0.6%, 0.3%, and 3.8%, respectively, which It may indicate decreased interest in palms in some governorates, whether inside the valley or outside the valley.

- The high financial measures for the production of dates indicate the feasibility of palm cultivation.

- The high financial measures for the manufacture and packaging of dates indicate the feasibility of manufacturing and packaging, with a high sensitivity to low revenues and high costs.

- According to the concept of fixed yield of capacity, the same level of date production can be achieved using 92% of the actual combination of resources used, and according to the concept of variable yield of capacity, the same level of date production can be achieved using 97% of the actual combination of resources used, and the farmer must increase its size by about 5% to take advantage of capacity savings, and achieve optimal utilization of resources.

- A low number of farms and factories have achieved full economic efficiency, which indicates that the rest of the farms and factories have not benefited from the economies of scale.

- There is an excessive use of some resources, whether in production or manufacturing.

Research is recommended: - Expansion in the production of dates due to their high financial Feasibility.

- Using appropriate low-cost technology when manufacturing and packing dates due to their high sensitivity to changing revenues and costs.

- Rationalization of the economic resources used in the production of dates, which are labor, automation, organic and chemical fertilizers (excluding potash fertilizers), whether under the premise of full or incomplete operation - Reducing the number of carton packages 1 kg, 2 kg and increasing the carton packages 3 kg at the assumption of full operation.

- The number of plastic packages increased 0.5, 1 and 2 kg when fully operational.

- Increasing the number of carton and plastic packages in general at the assumption of incomplete operation.

- Increase the amount of dates used, whether under the assumption of full or incomplete operation.
