Abstract

In the developing countries, many exporting farmers produce only for foreign markets. These farmers tend to be larger and more productive than domestic farmers, and often produce several products for export to many markets. In this paper, export data were examined on the non-traditional agriculture export sector in Egypt. Some non-traditional crop statues were reviewed and the possibilities of Egyptian exports development of crops were described. The data were collected and analyzed from new lands that have export crops like mint and artichokes. The estimated results indicate that the income from off-farm employment, production cost and labor have a positive effect on artichoke producers who want to become export grower. On the contrary, farm size, land quality and level of education and age have no significant effect on the artichokes reduction. On the other hand, the differences in land quality and the availability of labor significantly affect the choice of becoming an export grower. The increase in income from off-farm and production cost, decreases the likelihood that exporters will grow export crops. The age and level of education do not significantly increase the probability of becoming Mint export crop farmer.
