| Abstract | ||
| The study aimed to standard analysis of foreign demand of the Egyptian agriculture exports of frozen strawberries during the period 2009-2019 by: determine he quantity and value of frozen strawberry exports, described the geographical distribution and calculated the competitiveness indicators of the most important Egyptian frozen strawberry import markets. The most important countries importing the product under study are Germany, Saudi Arabia and Japan, which is one of the most promising markets. Moreover, the study adopted on the descriptive and quantitative analysis method for the most important economic indicators and regression analysis for estimating the export function. Results of the study during the period 2009-2019: - 1- The average quantity and value of exports of the product under study was about 55.37 thousand tones and 50.58 million dollars at an annual growth rate of about 28.6 % and 26.4%, respectively. 2- The top two markets for Egyptian frozen strawberry exports were Germany (17.47%), Saudi Arabia (13.38%) and one of the most promising markets was the Japanese market (7.59%). 3- The market share index for product exports under study was about 47.87%, 26.02% and 8.78% each for the Saudi Arabia, Japanese and German markets, respectively. 4- The standard analysis of the export function of product under study to the Saudi Arabia market showed that the most important factor with a positive impact was the area cultivated from strawberries in Egypt, while the factor with the negative impact was the export price, As for the German market the production of Egyptian strawberries and the export price of Poland were both positive, while for the Japanese market the most important factors with positive impact were the area cultivation, domestic production, the export price of Poland and the quantity of strawberry production in Japan had a negative impact. The study recommends exporting to new promising markets and keeps our progress in current traditional markets; we can do this by increasing the cultivated area, productivity and improving quality and competitive specifications. | ||
