Abstract | ||||
Apreliminary study focuses on economic analysis of organic garlic production in new cultivated soil under El-Minia Governorate conditions. Data were collected from growing 21 garlic genotypes under four compost levels. The obtained results showed that the total estimated cost of production for one feddan (4200 m2) of organic garlic was ranged from 9382.25 to 12641.5 L.E for fresh yield and from 9882.25 to 13141.5 L.E for cured yield. In this study, the total gross for the production of fresh yield ranged from 0.9803 to 5.036 ton/feddan. For cured yield, it ranged from 0.633 to 3.445 ton/feddan. In conclusion, colored cultivar "Egaseed 1" or "El-Wady" white clone were the highest profitable genotypes under the condition of the present study. | ||||
