Despite the progress that has been in the field of producing and marketing of medicinal and aromatic plants in general and the chamomile and fennel crops in particular from the successes at the local and global levels as it is considered as a raw material for manufacturing a large number of products and commodity export which contributed in increasing the outcome of national income. It was a motivation to development of agriculture and trade of these crops and increases their competitiveness against the competing countries., and despite this, the percentage that the value of medicinal and aromatic plants contributes about 2 billion pounds, or 0.7% of the value of vegetarian production, in Egypt is not absent from the markets of global medicinal and aromatic plants, as the value of its trading trade reached towards 156.3 million dollars, or 2.8 % of the total value of agricultural exports for 2020, which is a small percentage. The results of the research showed that the nominal protection laboratories for the Chamomile and Fennel crops are the average period (2016-2020) has reached about 1.01, 1.01 in order, which means that the state supports and protects the agricultural product and increases the tax burdens of the consumer, meaning that the local (agricultural) price is It exceeds the global price, and that producers of these crops in Egypt receive implicit support. It also turned out that the effective protection laboratories for the chamomile and fennel Shiites in Egypt during the previous period are estimated at 0.73, 0.82 in order, which means that the producer receives implicit support and that the consumer bears an implicit tax, as it became clear that the relative feature factories or resource cost Local for the Chamomile and Fennel has reached about 0.91, 0.89 in the order, which is less than the correct one, which means the crop has a comparative advantage in its production, and that the costs needed to add one pound of one pound representing about 0.91, 0.89 pounds per acre On the arrangement during the search period. This feature can be used to increase exports to the chamomile and fennel crops to the external markets It also became clear from the research that the economic surplus for the cobes of the chamomile and fennel Shiites in Egypt during the average period (2016-2020) estimated at 376.6, 415 pounds per acre in the order, which means increasing the economic profit of the state from the financial profit of the farmer by about 36.7%, 21, 5% in the arrangement, and this is confirmed by the percentage of the net acres of the farmer on the net of the state's academic return, which was estimated at 0.73, 0.82 , respectively for the two crops during the research period In light of the previous results, the study recommends the following: 1- Facing obstacles that prevent exporting oil crops to foreign markets and overcoming these obstacles, such as high production requirements and product quality and prices, and studying the most important foreign markets importing. 2- Activating the cooperation between the government and private sector to improve the ability of oil crops producers to export in order to increase their incomes provided that quality standards and improve the marketing structure oil crops by availability of storage, transportation and information marketing ways. `3- Creating economic and production structure to encourage producers to cultivate new land in the reclaimed areas to increase the cultivated area of oil crops. 4-Holding educational training courses for farmers and providing them with all new studies and research for medical and aromatic plants 5-Establishing a marketing information device within the cooperative structure at the state level and within all the production areas. | ||||
