In order to identify the impact of agricultural policy on the maize , the study period (2000-2018) was divided into two time periods, the first period is in the period before the revolution and exchange rate liberalization policies (2000-2010), while the second period is in the post-revolution period and exchange rate liberalization policies (2011-2018), while the results of development of prices shows the increasing in the prices of producer, wholesale, consumer of maize by about 175.8%, 165.3%, 148.9% during the period policies Second about the first period of study. | ||
