دراسة اقتصادية لإنتاج الطماطم بالصوب الزراعية في مصر

Abstract EN

Protected agriculture is considered one of the means of producing vegetables in the off-season or crops that are affected by weather conditions such as heat.

humidity and lighting.

Thus.

using this method of protected agriculture while adopting modern technical methods of irrigation.

fertilization and pest resistance can achieve the highest output per unit area and with high quality in In light of the cost of greenhouses to a certain extent.

and protected crops are a way to increase the cropping area as it is a method of intensifying the cultivation of vegetable crops and thus provide open areas for growing crops (strategic).

The problem of the study is that protected agriculture has a high investment cost and in light of the limited agricultural area and the competition of field crops for vegetable crops over a unit area.

with limited water resources.

high prices for production inputs.

and a decrease in the material return of farmers.

all of this led to a decrease in the cultivated areas of vegetable crops.

especially for tomatoes.

This led to the widening of the gap between the production and consumption of these crops and the effect of this on domestic prices and the volume of exports from them to the global markets.

In general.

the study aims to study and analyze the economics of producing tomato crops with protected crops to achieve maximum production per unit area for these crops and to study the current situation of tomato crop in Egypt using protected agriculture under greenhouses during the period (2000-2018).

The study relies on the two methods of descriptive and quantitative analysis to study and analyze the research problem related to the agricultural production of tomato crop under greenhouses.

based on some measurements and statistical analyzes such as trend equations.

general temporal and simple and multiple regression.

some indicators of economic efficiency.

and some indicators for feasibility studies and project evaluation.

The study mainly relied on all of the primary data through a stratified random sample of cucumbers.

peppers.

tomatoes and zucchini in traditional cultivation and an intentional sample of tomato crop in protected cultivation (greenhouses) selected in Buhaira Governorate.

in addition to the published and unpublished secondary data obtained from Official authorities and institutions such as the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation.

and the Agricultural Economy Research Institute.

in addition to available and available data published on the Internet.

Recommendations in the field of production.

marketing and export of greenhouse products 1- The necessity of placing the trademark for the seed varieties of crops grown inside greenhouses or plastic tunnels in terms of their source and the provisions for controlling their circulation.

which requires further research and study in this matter.

2- Work on the thoughtful expansion of the spread of protected crops in Egypt.

especially in desert areas and new societies.

in order to provide areas of what is cultivated in old lands to expand the cultivation of strategic crops such as wheat.

maize.

rice and cotton.

3- In view of the high investment and productivity related to protected agriculture and the increase in the amount of crop obtained from the per unit unit.

studies should be conducted on the sources of financing this type of agriculture.

4- Working on expanding the adoption of the protected agriculture system.

as most studies and research conducted in this field have confirmed its financial and economic feasibility.

As a result.

large quantities of irrigation water and chemicals that are directed to the axis of horizontal development are provided in addition to achieving abundant production that covers local consumption in addition to Meeting export needs.

5- Encouraging the establishment of nutritious and supportive industries for protected agriculture to reduce its high costs by relying on local production requirements available in the Egyptian environment.

6 -The expansion of the establishment of protected crops results in the provision of job opportunities as they require more labor than their counterparts in the open field.

And that the goal of production in protected agriculture is an export goal in the first place.

through the establishment of a special union formed for this purpose.

since its production of some crops has certain specifications
