The linear regression model reveled that million L.E increase in the value of Egyptian exports leads to 17 ton increase in the Egyptian imports quantity from food vegetable oils whereas 1000 metric tons increase in local production leads to 2850 ton decrease in the quantity imported from food vegetable oils. The ogarithmic ode I evealed hat n ncrease f bout 0% n he Egyptian exports value leads to about 1.77% increase in the quantity imported from food vegetable oils, whereas, 10% increase in local production from food vegetable oils leads to about 6.46% decrease in the quantity import from food vegetable oils. | ||
