Abstract | ||||
Biotechnology is an integrated production system that allows the improvement of the ecological and economic system of agricultural soil, as well as increasing the diversity and biological activity of soil microbes. Application of biotechnological technology includes the use of bio-fertilizers, which have become the most effective and reliable alternative to mineral fertilizers and their use in agriculture. The problem of the study is that the traditional agriculture of the wheat crop in the new lands and the use of chemical fertilizers did not achieve the optimal production of the wheat crop with the high costs of agriculture from the requirements of fertilization and irrigation, which is reflected in the reduction of productivity of feddan. Fertilization of the wheat crop and proved its high ability to increase the productivity of feddan and resistance to diseases affecting the wheat crop has been proved in many research studies in the form of master and doctoral dissertations in each of the universities and research centers, and considered Economic conditions has become an urgent need to increase the productivity of wheat to fill the food gap. Therefore, the study aims to estimate the production capacity of the wheat crop in Egypt and its relation to food security, the use of bio fertilizers in fertilizing the wheat crop and its quality study in increasing the yield of wheat compared to mineral and organic fertilizers. It was found that the average farm price of wheat crop is about 129, 215.83 and 355.17 pounds / ton during the periods (2000-2005), (2006-2011) and (2012-2017) respectively, with an average of 233.33 LE / ton during the study period (2000-2017). The average value of the total wheat crop income is about 2943.6, 5434.33 and 7968 LE / feddan as an average during the periods (2000-2005), (2006-2011) and (2012-2017) respectively, -2017) estimated at 5448.64 pounds / acre. It was found that the average total cost of wheat crop during the period 2000-2005, 2006-2011 and 2012-2017 amounts to about 1202.75, 2156 and 5158.17 pounds / fed respectively, with an average of 2838.97 LE / feddan during the study period (2000-2017). The average net yield of the wheat crop during the periods 2000-2005, 2006-2011 and 2012-2017 is about 1537, 2230.67 and 2578.17 LE / fed, and the average for the study period (2000-2017) is estimated About 2115,28 pounds / acres It was found that the average yield on the spent pound is about 0.67, 0.7 and 0.74 pounds during the periods (2000-2005), (2006-2011) and (2012-2017) for each of them respectively, with an average of about 0, 71 pounds during the study period (2000-2017). And the average yield on the pound per month for the wheat crop during the periods (2000-2005), (2006-2011) and (2012-2017) is about 193.07 and 467.69 and 429.69 pounds / month respectively, and on average Year estimated at 363.48 LE / month during the study period (2000-2017). The study showed that the food gap of wheat tends to increase around the average of 5841 thousand tons, with a minimum of 2409 thousand tons in 2005, and a maximum of about 11079 thousand tons in 2017. While the average self-sufficiency rate of wheat was 60.3% during the study period. It ranged from a low of 47.89% in 2010 to a decrease of 12.41% from the average gap during the same period. The highest increase was about 77.17% in 2005, an increase of about 16.87% compared to the annual average during the same period. | ||||
