| Abstract | ||||
| The poultry production sector is one of the main components of the livestock production sector in Egypt, with a value of about 93.308 billion EGP, representing about 28.96% of the value of livestock production in Egypt, amounting to about 281.68 billion EGP during the period (2020-2022), and the total production of the commercial poultry sector in Egypt amounted to about 1.4 billion birds per year, while the rural sector produces about 320 million birds per year on average during the period (2020-2022). The research mainly aimed at studying the financial analysis of broiler farms in the open and closed breeding systems in the New Valley governorate, in order to identify the extent of profitability of this production activity and the possibility of expanding this activity and increasing the quantities produced from it, through sub-evaluation of the financial and environmental assessment criteria for broiler farms in the New Valley governorate, the most important research results were as follows: The capital recovery period, the rate of return on investment, the net present value, the ratio of current benefits to current costs, and the internal rate of return in the open breeding system amounted to about 3.448 years, 29%, 1.862890 million EGP, 1.0746, 31.81%, respectively, while the value of these indicators in the closed breeding system amounted to about 1.895 years, 52.76%, 5.916423 million EGP, 1.15994, 56.63% respectively. It also turned out that although the open and closed breeding systems for broiler in the New Valley governorate have the ability to withstand inappropriate conditions, represented by increasing variable costs, total costs, reduced revenues, or reducing the life of the project, the ability of the encapsulated breeding system exceeds the ability of the open breeding system to withstand unfavorable conditions, so the research recommends the feasibility of investing in the fattening of chickens in the New Valley governorate, preferably the followers of the closed breeding system. | ||||
