دراسة تحليلية لإنتاج محاصيل الأعلاف الخضراء الغير تقليدية بالأراضي الجديدة بمحافظة الإسماعيلية "محصول الدخن"

Abstract EN

The demand for green fodder is considered a demand derived from the demand for livestock, as the increase in the demand for these products leads to an increase in the demand for green fodder crops, and due to the difference and the variation of the contribution of green fodder crops throughout the year as the production of winter green fodder in Ismailia Governorate reaches 96.44% While the availability of summer fodder crops reaches 4%, which led to a severe deficit in summer green fodder, which makes farms dependent for feeding on some agricultural residues and hay, which are low in nutritional value.

This requires that serious attempts be made to provide summer green fodder by expanding the areas of new green multi-grass fodder and introducing the cultivation of these fodder in the reclaimed lands.

This study aims to measure the effect of some technical factors as well as agricultural practices on the productivity of the summer millet crop in the new lands in Ismailia Governorate, and to determine the optimal production volume that lowers the costs per ton produced, and also to determine the volume of production for the bulk of profits with an estimate of the optimal supply combination among the most important variables affecting the productivity of the crop.

New millet Bala Rady.

It was found that the most important variables affecting the productivity of the millet crop are nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate and municipal fertilizer, as it has been shown from a study of the functions of variable cost averages that the optimum volume of production with lower costs was about 50.76 tons per acre, while the volume of maximum production of profits was estimated at about 5961 tons per acre.

It was also clear from the study of indicators of economic efficiency and productivity that the average value of the total revenue per feddan amounted to about 16,464 pounds per feddan, and the net revenue was estimated at about 7165 pounds per feddan.

The study of the effect of the most important agricultural practices and their effect on the productivity of the millet crop showed that repeated fertilization with nitrogen fertilizer after each load leads to an increase in productivity.

The study recommends: 1- Working to increase the productivity of the feddan of the summer millet crop in the new lands by increasing the used quantities of chemical fertilizers that have a positive effect from nitrogen fertilizers, phosphate fertilizers and municipal fertilizers.

2- Instructing millet growers to good agricultural practices that have been statistically proven to increase productivity per feddan, which is repeated fertilization with nitrogen fertilizer after each mulch, with planting at the appropriate time, which is the first half of April, and mulching when the plant height reaches 90-110cm.

.

3- Expanding the cultivation of millet on the new lands during the summer season in order to fill the deficit in summer fodder crops.
