Abstract

Agriculture occupies an important place in the Egyptian economy, but the agricultural sector is still going through many economic conditions and problems that have stood in the way of its development and modernization, which has been reflected directly or indirectly on the role of the agricultural sector in economic development, as the relative importance of agricultural income in relation to national income has decreased from About 14.2% in 2000 to about 7.8% in 2020, Which led to the inability of local agricultural production to meet the requirements and needs of the population in Egypt as a result of the decrease in the average per capita share of both land and crop areas, and the decrease in the level of productivity in the agricultural sector, as a result of many factors, including direct government intervention in the agricultural structure and the misuse of Available resources. The results of the research showed that there is positive relationship between Egyptian agricultural income and both the yield area in one million feddan, the number of tractors in one thousand tractors, total fertilizers, agricultural investments, and agricultural wages, as increasing the number of units used from the previous variables by 1% leads to an increase in Egyptian agricultural income by about 7.054%, 1.869%., 0.611%, 0.246%, and 0.068, respectively. While it was found that there is a negative relationship between Egyptian agricultural income and the quantity of organic fertilizers in million cubic meters, as it became clear that increasing the quantity of organic fertilizers in million cubic meters by 1% leads to a decrease in Egyptian agricultural income by 2.809%.
