Abstract

This research aims in general to study the estimation of the functions of production costs as they reflect the relationship between total costs and actual production, through which it is possible to derive the most important economic indicators that reflect the extent to which agricultural production units achieve economic efficiency in their use of productive resources involved in the production process, as well as the extent to which these units achieve maximization of profits for the agricultural product. The study of production costs and the associated important indicators, whether at the level of the production unit or at the national level, can be used to draw and analyze price policies and help agricultural producers in making their own production decisions, which would encourage producers to continue or expand the production process or stop production.
In addition to determining the volume of production that achieves most of the profits and then achieve economic efficiency from the use of productive elements.
