It became clear from the analysis of demand functions at the level of each income group separately or at the level of the subject of all income groups that the independent variables, which are (X₁ the price of red meat), (X₂ the monthly income of the family), (X₃ the price of the substitute for chicken meat), (X₄ the size of the respondent's family) have an influence on the consumption of red meat. The results of the analysis showed that there is an economic logic that supports attention to these factors that have a positive impact on increasing consumption, such as the necessity of increasing incomes higher than the increase in price levels and the necessity of providing monetary support in the form of increasing incomes, which contributes to the consumer's ability to purchase, even if its prices increase, the smuggling of this commodity, whose production requirements are subsidized, especially concentrated feed, is prohibited. When smuggled, this leads to an additional burden on the state's financial policies, and this may lead to rationalization of consumption. Likewise, it is necessary to produce chicken meat and fish that can be produced efficiently (large quantities, high quality, and at appropriate prices). in the study area and its positive impact on changing the consumption pattern in favor of these alternatives instead of excessive consumption of red meat and not continuing to deplete this livestock, especially sheep meat.
                Based on the results obtained, the study reached a set of recommendations that may be valid for economic policy makers to formulate an appropriate economic policy in this important area.
1. Work to increase incomes, considering that they are higher than the general rise in commodity prices.
2. Work to reduce the prices of alternative commodities through the availability of their production requirements and continue to increase fish production since the study area extends along a long coast on the Mediterranean Sea.
3. Monitoring prices so that they are in the interest of the consumer and the producer.
4. Awareness and guidance through guidance and media outlets to clarify the effects of excessive consumption of red meat.
5. Conduct more funded studies and research on opportunities and demand for this commodity and the possibility of providing it locally in Libya.
