The research aimed to developing a strategy to raise the self sufficiency of meat proportion in Egypt, and raising the production efficiency of cows and buffaloes calves fattening farms in in Alexandria Governorate in particular, where the average per capita of meat was decreasing to reaching about 26 gm / day as an average during the period of (2000-2014) and about 28 gm / day in 2014, this is less than the internationally amounting recommended which about 130 gm / day according to WHO estimation, as a result of continuing in the population growth which amounted about 86 million people in 2014, as well as the phenomenon spread calves slaughter, what is negatively impacting on cows and buffalo number needed for breeding, This led to import more than 420 thousand tons of meat in 2014 which estimated at about 1.7$ milliard.
The research mainly led on data of a producers sample of cows and buffalo calves in Alexandria Governorate during 2016 to assess the needs of feed, the research has been designed two plans over 5.10 years to increasing numbers livestock allocated over those years , as well as estimating the amount of concentrated feed that must be imported until the land reclamation and cultivation crops of concentrated feed needed for such increase, research has also found several recommendations, the most important of them are:
1- Put on strategic Planned to purify local cows and crossbred with foreign breeds (like Friesian) and import of just sperm in nitrogen tank which weighed about 5 k.gm to improve the municipal qualities of cows rather than the importation of cattle and meat.
2- Stop imports of live cattle, but in seasons with interest quarantine.
3- Make a special program of immunization and interest in providing vaccines and medicines in a manner time to all breeders.
4- interest in national project of calves fattening as a renaissance of livestock in Egypt.
5- Instruct fattening producer to use optimal combinations of concentrated, green and dry feed for calves fattening and minimize its costs.
