Medical and aromatic plants are non-traditional promising crops that might significantly contribute. via their exports. to increasing state's returns of foreign currency and. hence. improve the trade balance. Although the state encourages expansion of cultivating such crops. it is noted that such increase is small despite the corresponding increase in prices or exports compared to the total value of the Egyptian agricultural exports in the period (1995-2012).

This paper aims at studying the relative importance of Egyptian medical & aromatic plants exports. and to measure the stability of such exports as well as the geographic distribution and seasonal pattern of Egyptian medical plants exports and their important importing markets. In addition. the quantities and prices of Egyptian medical plants exports using the Automatic Regressive Integrated – Moving Average (ARIMA) Model. Several results were reached. The most important results are:- | ||||
