Abstract | ||||
Study aims to shed light on the current status of the production of the most important medical plants and aromatic province in Beni-swef governorate, through the identification of conditions for production and the factors that affect it, as well as the most important problems and obstacles encountered in the production and marketing of the final product. To achieve this study was the application of crop Chamomile, parsley, Dill and Aromatic using statistical descriptive analysis and quantitative dependent on the initial data was collected through a simple random sample using the method of personal interview, and the study found the following results: 1- For the record to assess the functions of production shows that the most important factors affecting the production of the crop seedlings are Chamomile thousand seedlings (X3) and automated hourly work (X6) and nitrogenous fertilizer nitrous units (X4) and the use of economic transactions and the flexibility it positive, and for of Aromatic found that the most important factors affecting the work is automated hourly (X6), and human labor man/day (X7) and the use of economic transactions, flexibility and positive. For crop Dill factors contribute more to the interpretation of the dependent variable is the regression model, where the progress of these variables is the work of human man / day (X7) and Automated hourly work (X6) phosphate fertilizer and phosphate units (X5) by the contribution amounted to 99.8% and that the use of economic and flexible transactions positive. And parsley for the crop was found to be more factors make the interpretation of the dependent variable is the regression model, where the progress of these variables is nitrogenous fertilizer nitrous units (X4) and the municipal compost in cubic meters (X2) by the contribution amounted to about 98% and use of economic transactions and the flexibility positive. 2- For the record to estimate the cost functions for crop production Chamomile size of maximum production about 6.4 tons of grass/fead of productive optimal size of the civil costs estimated at about 2.35 tons of acres of grass, and for the size Aromatic found productive profit of about 39.44 kg of oil/fead of optimum size of the civil costs amounted to about 24.72 kg of oil/fead. In the case of crop Dill, as far as the production volume of the holy profit of about 31.07 tons of grass and acres of productive optimal size of the civil costs estimated at about 13.25 tons of grass acres, while the total volume parsley crop production around the holy-profit 17.09 tons of grass and acres of productive optimal size of the civil costs estimated at about 14.43 tons of grass/fead. This indicates the possibility of expansion and investment in this area as it requires investments in view of the high cost of production is indicated as a mechanism of production and cost parameters and to return the rule of the phenomenon of increasing capacity. | ||||
