Abstract | ||||
The fruit of olives has a high nutritional value and the processed fruits are included in the diets of humans from green or black olives, as well as for olive oil, which is known in Egypt as “good oil”. As the production of the crop inside the oasis suffers from many problems, as most farmers do not achieve the required agricultural production efficiency, familiarity with the appropriate agricultural processes for olives, as they continued to depend for their production on the traditional technical methods, which are far from the most efficient method from a technical point of view, which led to a decrease in the average productivity of an acre of olive crop. On the other hand, this region lacks information related to the economic conditions for the production and marketing of this the crop. The Data Envelope program was used to measure the technical efficiency and capacity efficiency of the four villages (Siwa, Aghurmi, Al-Maraki, Bahey Al-Din), as well as measuring the economic efficiency of the same villages, and finally the efficiency indicators. To achieve this, data was obtained randomly from 100 farms in Siwa Center, Matrouh Governorate, through a questionnaire form prepared for that purpose and when using the Data Envelopment Analysis Program (DEAP)shows from the analysis that the total number of Siwa farms (100) farms achieved 27 technical efficiency farms, 3 farms decreasing return to capacity, and 70 farms increasing return to capacity. The economic efficiency was about 0.405. | ||||
