الكفاءة الاقتصادية لإنتاج و استهلاك اللحوم الحمراء في مصر

Abstract EN

The State is interested in both agricultural production Plant and animal.

the livestock sector is one of the main components of Egypt's agricultural income.

the problem of research is that the production capacity of fresh meat is not able to facing consumer needs.

This caused the rising domestic prices and dependence on external imports on the form of live animals or on the form of frozen meat.

Causing an increased pressure on the balance of payments.

it also reduced the self-sufficiency ratio of fresh meat from about 82.1% during the average period (2000-2003) to about 65.6% during the average period (2013-2016).

The research aims mainly at information efficiency of both production and consumption of fresh meat in Egypt.

by studying the current local status of animal production.

in addition to the study of the efficiency of the use of productive resources in cattle feed farms in the sample of research in Sohag governorate.

The study was based on a random stratified sample of the livestock breeders during the 2016/2017 season for the production of fresh meat from cattle (cattle and buffalo) in Sohag governorate.

where it was choose the largest centers for the production of fresh meat.

namely Tema and Sohag.

The study found the following results: 1- The general trend of the value of fresh meat production in Egypt shows that there is an annual-increase estimated at LE 7.47 billion representing 28.9% of the annual average.

which estimated at LE 25.88 billion during the period 2000-2016.

2- The results indicate that the quantities of fresh meat produced by cattle.

buffalo.

sheep.

goats and camels in Egypt during the period 2000-2016 were estimated at 361.

334.

73.

49 and 8 thousand tons respectively.

representing about 43.76%.

40.49% 8.86%.

5.95% and 1.0% of the quantities of fresh meat produced in Egypt.

estimated at 824 thousand tons.

3- The results indicated that the most important economic variables affecting the production of fresh meat in Egypt during the period (2000-2016) are livestock loans.

clover area.

amount of clover.

amount of other winter green fodder the amount of dry fodder and residue of soybeans The production elasticity of these variables was estimated at 0.14.

2.18.

2.56.

0.21 and 0.60 respectively.

indicating that they were used in the economic stage of production.

the total elasticity estimated at 5.69 indicating that there was an increase in return on scale.

so the user must be increase from those resources.

because of their increased efficiency In the production of fresh meat in Egypt.

the study recommends: 1- Paying attention to increasing the numbers of animals producing red meats by educing high production breeds in the one hand.

and enduring climatic conditions on the other hand.

2- Improving veterinary services inside vet units in villages.

3- Encouraging breeders by providing production requirements with subsidized prices or by installment.

4- Establishing an insurance project exclusive for this field only
