Abstract

The food issue is one of the most important strategic issues of concern to Egypt, which strives to increase the rates of self-sufficiency, reduce the food gap and achieve food security from agricultural and animal commodities. And the research aims to study and analyze the productive and consumption capacities of livestock, poultry and fish and their repercussions in an attempt to achieve food security in Egypt. The research results showed that the percentage of self-sufficiency in total meat decreased annually by about 0.75%, from red meat annually by about 1.11%, and from white meat by about 0.42%. While the percentage of self-sufficiency in Milk & Dairy Production increased annually by about 0.63%. Egypt relied on abroad to meet its needs of total meat by about 12,08%, about 20.22% of red meat, about 2.18% of white meat, about 17.62% of fish, about 0.08% of eggs, and about 19.54% of Milk and dairy Production.
