| Abstract | ||||
| The research aims at identifying the current status of some economic variables of mango crop in Egypt, measuring the effect of temporal and geographic changes on mango productivity using two-way variance analysis, Duncan method for multiple range testing, the ability to comply with export orders through the process of production and export stability of Egypt and the competing countries. It was found that the average of mango area during the period (2014-2016) was about 219 thousand feddans representing about 16.2% of the total fruit area with average productivity of about 4.2 tons per feddan. The annual average value of agricultural, plants, fruits and mango production was about 18.5, 108.5, 189.7 and 2 billion pounds during the previous period. The annual average of productive area, feddan productivity and production of mango during the period (2000- 2016) was 136.4 thousand feddans, 4.2 tons per feddan and 560.3 thousand tons respectively. The annual increase in area and production amounted to about 11,28 thousand feddans, 41 , 68 thousand tons respectively, while there is a significant annual decrease in productivity of the crop during the period of research about 0.05 tons per feddan.The annual average consumption and exports of mango were 544.8 thousand tons, 6.4 thousand tons respectively, representing the consumption of about 97.51% of mango production, while exports represented about 0.94%, 0.97% of the annual average For both mango production and consumption, there is an annual increase in consumption and exports of mango during the study period amounted to about 39.53, 1.08 thousand tons respectively. There was a statistically significant difference between the feddan productivity of mango during the period (2012 - 2016). The feddan productivity divided into three groups, the highest productivity was about 4.40 tons in 2014. There is also a statistically significant difference between the feddan productivity average of mango during the period of study and for different governorates also, showed that the province of Nubaria was the highest productivity, where the productivity average was about 7.31 tons / feddan during the study period. The study examined the extent of production and export stability of Egypt and the mango exporting countries during the study period, indicating that there is an advantage for Egypt in the production stability of mango, but it does not enjoy the same advantage in export stability despite the instability of production. This may be due to an imbalance in the production system for export, or a defect in the export system itself. Conversely, Mexico, Peru, and the Netherlands have an advantage in export stability. This may be due to the fact that these countries p < /p> | ||||
