دراسة اقتصادية للكفاءة التشغيلية لمصانع سكر القصب في مصر

الملخص EN

The sugar industry is a significant manufacturing industry, and the problem was caused by the sugarcane crop's increased demands for land and water resources when compared to the sugar beetroot crop.

given the difficulties of changing the crop composition of sugar cane cultivation in the south of the valley in the short and medium term to provide what sugar factories require from cane, improving the efficiency of sugar production in sugar cane factories to maximize the use of cane produced is required.

the research seeks to investigate the current production condition of sugar plants in Egypt using sugar cane and to determine the most critical elements influencing productivity in order to improve operational efficiency and maximum benefit.

the variables impacting the operating efficiency and the amount of sugar produced per day of operation for cane sugar processing facilities were studied using cross-sectional data for eight cane sugar production plants from 2016 to 2021.

the results revealed a considerable decline in the amount of cane sugar produced, the total amount of sugar cane provided throughout the study period, and sugar output for the eight plants producing cane sugar.

this necessitates research into the elements influencing the operational efficiency and daily production of sugar cane factories, which adds to the most efficient use of these factories and their economic efficiency.

the amount of sugar produced, the degree of purity of the produced sugar, and the percentage of impurities in the produced sugar are among the most important factors affecting the operational efficiency of sugar factories, all of which are significant and their signal is consistent with economic logic.

one of the most important elements influencing factory production efficiency based on the amount of sugar produced each day is the amount of cane supplied.

both the amount of cane supplied and the degree of purity of the sugar produced are both positively and statistically significant signals.
