I The aim of this research is to clarify the current and future situation of meat production and consumption. the main economic aspects which have a strong affect on them. also how to avoid shortage of meat in Arab World. The red meat average in Arab World has reached to 3.02 million ton during the period 1999 - 2000, the annual increase rate of red meat production in Arab World is approximately 0.127 million ton assured statistically. As for white meat. its production rate In Arab World reached to approximately 1.8 million ton during the same period. and the rate of annual increase eached to 0.094 million ton. On studying of supply and demand samples forecast by using the available data during the period 1990·2000 supply and demand samples on 2005,2010 showed that cows and buffaloes expected production in Arab World on 200~ is 2360.5 thousand ton, but the Arab consumption from Cows and Buffaloes meat i~ the same year is 2990.7 thousand ton. So the gap will be 630.2 thousand ton with average of self'sufficiency (Autarchy) about 78.9 % While the cows and buffaloes mea! expected production on year of 2010 about 2937.5 thousand ton. while the Arab world consumption on the same year is about 3599.5 thousand ton. So the gap on the year 2010 is 662 thousand ton approxim~teIY, with average of self-sufficiency about 81.6 % which clarify an improvement in the average of self-sufficiency form cows and buffaloes meat. The cheeps and goats; meat expected product in Arab World on year 2005 will be 1766.2 thousand ton. while the expected consumption in the same year will about 2153.4 thousand ton, with average of self-sufficiency about 82%. So the gap will be about 387.2 thousand ton. The sheep and goats; meat expected production on year 2010 will be about 2181.4 thousand ton. while the expected consumption in the same year will be about 2542.2 thousand lon, which means a gap about 360.8 thousand ton with average of self-sufficiency about 85.8%, that indicates to an improvement in the average of self-sufficiency. The poultry meat expected production on year 2005 will be about 2816.8 thousand ton, while the expected consumption in the same year will be about 3138.2 thousand ton. So the gap wil! be 321.4 thousand ton of average of self-sufficiency about 89.8 'Yo. Concerning to the expected meat product on year 2010 will be about 3343.6 thousand ton, while the expected consumption on the same year about 3707.9 thousand ton, so the gap will be 364.3 thousand ton approximately, with average of self-sufficiency about 90.2%% during the same year. According to the above mentioned it is very clear that improvement in the average of self-sufficiency between the year 2005-2010, thai's because of the clear balance between the product & consumption policy; As we can see a change existed in the average of product within 2005-2010 about 18.7%; comparing with the expected consumption in the same period with average of about t 8.2%. | ||||
