The maize crop is one of the most important crops cultivated in Egypt in terms of economic and food importance, coming in third place after wheat and rice, and the main motivation for expanding the cultivation of the maize crop is the desire to rise by self-sufficiency because it enters the nutrition of humans and animals. The research problem was the fluctuation of marketing efficiency of the maize crop because of some price problems for farms that have an impact on total revenue and net yield of the crop, in addition to the fact that traders have large marketing margins while providing few marketing functions, which requires studying the marketing conditions of the maize crop and reaching some proposals for the distribution of fair price to farms and traders. The marketing costs of the white and yellow maize crop are equal in marketing costs, including transportation, storage, converting maize from Corn cob into grains, packaging, and worker.
