إنتاج الدواجن بالمنطقة الشرقية في ليبيا

Abstract EN

This research aims to knowing the factors affecting the poultry production in the Eastern Region of Libya.

The production aspect has been studied as it represents the aspect of presenting poultry in the study Region.

The study has used the method of comprehensive counting in order to collect the data of production.

The study has shown, through the comprehensive surveying, that 76 farms work with full production power at the time of study, and that the rest did not work due to the problems that Libya is facing after the revolution inside the study region.

The number of 72 regions with a rate of 51%, which shows that half of the expected production is not working ,with a rate of 49% .The descriptive and quantitative analysis have been used through these data where the multiple slope regression style method has been used for the poultry farms in the study region in different methods to estimate the different functions of production.

It has been proved that the double logarithmic form is the (best) form to the nature of the specimen from the economic and statistical point of view, as the production is the subordinate variant, whereas the variants explained according to their relative importance have been the number of birds , the forage , number of manpower , animal medicaments and vaccines the study has shown that the test estimated image of the cost function is the quadratic image that shows the relationship between the total production cost and the quantity of produced poultry .

The cost function has shown that the ideal size is bigger than the actual size.

The coefficient of elasticity of the costs was estimated through dividing the marginal cost, about 0.62 which means that production occurs in the second production phase of the yield decrease law, therefore there must be an intensive elements of production should be intensified to reach a maximum profit.

The study has included the aspect of imports.

It has been shown from the study for the year 2015 that the quantity of local product reached about 125.000 tons and that the imports for the same year were about 8.800 tons.

The available quantity and the consumed one were estimated at about 98.700 tons which indicates the existence of a gap between production and consumption due to the lack of covering the animal.
