| Abstract | ||||
| The research aimed mainly to identify the opinions of agricultural experts from research centers and universities on the reasons for the farmers’ reluctance to grow and produce the faba bean crop, and their opinion on the current marketing system for the faba bean crop and their proposals for its development, as well as to identify their opinion on the contract farming system for the same crop, and also to identify the The role of agricultural extension in solving the problems of the reluctance of faba bean farmers in its cultivation areas, and the descriptive approach was adopted as a basis for describing the results of the research, and the two agricultural research stations and the colleges of agriculture at the Universities of Assiut and Sohag were identified as a geographical area for research. Those work in the aforementioned entities, and thus a total of 224 respondents. The most problems that contributed to the farmers’ reluctance to grow and produce the fava bean crop were the weakness of the agricultural extension system in the problems related to the crop (95.98%), its failure to stimulate farmers who excel in productivity (93.75%), and the small size of agricultural holdings for the vast majority of the farmers (93.30%). A little more than two-thirds of the respondents (67.85%) believe that the current marketing system for the faba bean crop is not suitable for farmers, due to several reasons, the most important of which are: the scarcity of cooperative agricultural marketing (97.32%), the absence of a stable marketing policy for the crop (96.87%), a decrease in the price of a ton of the crop after harvest (94.64%), the absence of a clear price policy for farmers that specifies an appropriate guarantee price for a ton of the crop before planting (94.20%), the lack of information on marketing agencies (92.85%). | ||||
