Abstract

The study aimed at analyze the production and economic efficiency of the cantaloupe crop, the results of the statistical measurement of the production functions of the winter cantaloupe crop showed in the total sample farms, found that the municipal fertilizer factor (chick) occupies the first place of effect on the production quantity of the cantaloupe crop, the chemical fertilizer factor ranked second, then the pesticide quantity factor in the third order, and finally the number of seedlings factor The value of the modified determination coefficient indicates that about 76% of the changes, as well as estimates that the productivity elasticity amounted to about 0.208, 0.415, 0.105 and 0.153 respectively. The results of the summer cantaloupe that the municipal fertilizer factor (chick) ranks first in terms of affecting the quantity of the cantaloupe crop, followed by the number of seedlings factor in the second place, then the chemical fertilizer factor in the third place and finally the factor of the human labor volume in the fourth place and last. The value of the modified determination coefficient indicates that about 84% of the changes in the quantity of production are due to the change in the aforementioned factors. It is also estimated that the productivity elasticity amounted to about 0.214, 0.415, 0.131 and 0.123 respectively.
