Abstract

North Sinai Governorate is one of the promising governorates in olive production, as it ranks first in the list of crop composition of horticultural crops, with a relative importance of about 36.69% during 2018. North Sinai Governorate is also considered the olive oil exchange in Egypt in terms of quality and productivity, so it controls the prices of olives and its products with major producers, traders and brokers. The research relied on the use of financial evaluation criteria and economic efficiency measures in studying the efficiency of the performance of olive farms. In achieving its goals, it relied on two types of data, the first of which is the secondary data issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation, the Economic Affairs Sector and the Directorate of Agriculture in North Sinai Governorate, and the second is the primary data that was obtained from a stratified random sample through a stratified random sample of 160 olive farms. Inside North Sinai Governorate during the 2019, 2020 average seasonal production. By studying the indicators of economic efficiency, the research showed that the general average of the return on costs, the return on the invested pound, the profit margin of the product, the relative profitability of the olive crop in North Sinai amounted to about 1.81, 81.4%, 44.9%, 68.5%, at the total of the sample farms, during the average seasonal production (2019, 2020). The general average of the economic efficiency of the olive crop in North Sinai amounted to about 1.06 pounds, meaning that each pound spent on fixed and variable production factors achieves an added value of about 1.06 pounds, at the level of the total sample farms, during the average seasonal production (2019, 2020).
