It may be anticipated theoretically that the predominant physical and culture landscape of Egyptian countryside has a positive role in orienting the interest towards rural fields for geographical studies. The landmarks of the Egyptian contribution in this broad branch could be extracted from investigating seven sources: academic institutions concerning in teaching courses of geography discipline in undergraduate and postgraduate levels, textbooks prepared in the field of rural geography, dissertations submitted to gain academic degrees specialized in the domain of rural geography, Scientific associations responsible for the discipline promotion, articles discussing the rural geography’s subjects published in scientific periodicals, symposiums and conferences that illuminate current issues, and the outdoors interactive communications with related bodies which bear the same concern. Having compiling data from the previous sources, sorting methodology was applied to distinguish types and extents of the presented contribution, either in quantity or in quality, and its effect either in theory or in application in terms of spatial covering levels. | ||
