Abstract

Animal products contribute with about 40.19% of the total value of agricultural production which amounted by 279.7 billion Egyptian pounds in 2014. Livestock meat is one of the most important components of animal production, contributing with about 36.62% of the value of animal production which amounted by about 43.3 billion Egyptian pounds in the same year.     The study also predicted that the number of raw leather in all three grades; cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goats and camels would fall to 581, 4, 188,4, 163,4, 8.2 and 73.8 thousand respectively. The decline in the number of  raw leather was reflected in the decrease in the general trend sum of raw leather of different grades of cattle, which is expected to decrease to about 1038.3 thousand lbs by 2020,this decrease is statistical significant. The study of prices and profitability of square feet of leather for different types of skins of cows, buffalo, sheep, goats and camels, was 5.95, 5, 1 , 2.45, 1.85, 2.35 pounds, respectively.
