| Abstract | ||
| The agricultural sector is one of the most important productive sectors in the Egyptian economy, and one of its basic components to bring about economic and social development. The poultry sector in Egypt is one of the main sectors in the Egyptian economy, as the value of poultry meat and eggs is estimated at about 91 billion pounds in 2020, Poultry fattening farms in Egypt face many problems and risks in various aspects, and the study and management of risks, their effects and results on the poultry fattening sector are of great importance to the breeder and the state, because of their clear impact on poultry production and decisions related to it. The study included four main chapters in addition to an introduction to the study, a summary in Arabic and another in English, and a list of references. The first chapter came in two chapters, the first chapter of which dealt with the problem of the study and its objective, the sources of information and data, the description of the study sample and the research method, as well as the organization of the study. The main objective of the study was to identify the most important risks facing the agricultural sector in general and the poultry sector in particular, and to estimate their effects and how to manage and confront them to reach the policies and mechanisms that would confront those risks. There are 60 farms during the 2021 productive season. The second chapter dealt with the reference review of previous studies related to the subject of the study, and the most important findings of these studies. The second chapter dealt with the theoretical framework of the study, and this chapter included two main chapters, The first chapter dealt with the concepts and strategies of risk management, while the second chapter included risks in the agricultural sector and its management mechanisms, and the third chapter included the current situation of the poultry sector in Egypt during the period (2005-2020). It dealt with the development of the value of agricultural production and animal production, in addition to the value of poultry meat and eggs, and finally the main components of the modern poultry sector in Egypt were addressed. The first chapter of Chapter Four also dealt with the risks facing poultry fattening farms in Egypt, which were classified into five main axes. And twelve sub-axis in which the risks were divided according to relative importance, and the results of the descriptive analysis study indicate that the average degree of approval of the sample members on the elements that represent each axis was about 2.3, 2.5, 2.3, 1.7, 2.2, 2, 1.8, 2.1, 1.9, 2, 2.4, 2.3 for the secondary axes, respectively. It was also found that the average relative importance of the response to the elements of each risk axis was about 76%, 84%, 77%, 56%, 75%, 67%, 60%, 70%, 63%, 66%, 78%, 76% For each axis, respectively, the results reflect the relative importance of the risks included in the study. The second chapter dealt with measuring the impact of the various risks on poultry fattening farms, in which the risks were divided according to their probability of occurrence and the degree of their impact, as they range from very weak (simple) risks to very strong (extremely dangerous). The study concluded with several recommendations that would contribute to reducing the risks to which the poultry sector is exposed. | ||
