| Abstract | ||
| The grape crop is considered one of the most important export horticultural crops in the Egyptian agricultural exports, where Egypt had ranked fourth globally in the grape production, and its production volume is approximately 1.41 million tons in 2023. It is ranked third in the agricultural exports after orange and potatoes in terms of value which is about 292.17 million Dollars, and the exports volume is about 111.87 thousand tons in 2023. The research problem is the decline of Egyptian exports rate of grape in its important importing markets along with the instability and the decline of growth rate. Hence, the main objective of the research is recognizing the determinants of competitiveness of the Egyptian Grape in its important international markets, and one of the important results is the local production volume of grape is about 1.49 million tons during the period of the study, and the grape exports volume is about 93.92 thousand tons which is 6.31% from the total production value, where the grape exports value is about 197.16 million Dollars which is represented about 4.17% of the total value of Egyptian agricultural exports, and six countries represented about 73% of the grape exports. The results have showed the poor comparative advantage of Egypt in the grape production in comparison with the most important competing countries in the global market, it is found also that the Egyptian grape does not have a competitive price advantage in comparison with the most important competing countries in the most important importing markets, moreover, it is found as well the poor of both the market share and market penetration for the Egyptian grape in the most important importing markets in comparison with the most important competing countries in these markets. It is found that the comparative advantage of Egyptian grape in the Dutch Market that the Egyptian grape export price increased in South Africa was about 1% leads to the decline of the Egyptian grape exports volume to the Dutch Market was about 0.4%, and the relative importance has increased of the Egyptian grape exports regarding the local production against its counterpart in South Africa by 1% leads to increase of the Egyptian grape exports to this market by 0.83%, as well as the relative importance of the Egyptian grape exports has increased regarding the local production against its counterpart in Chile in the Dutch Market by 1% leads to increase of the Egyptian grape exports to this market by 0.17%, and the total production of the Egyptian grape against its counterpart in Chile was about 1% leads to increase the Egyptian grape exports volume to the Dutch Market by 0.66%. In addition, it is found that the comparative advantage of Egyptian grape in the British Market that has increased against its counterpart in Chile by 1% leads to decline of the Egyptian grape exports volume to the British Market by 0.13%, as well as the relative importance of the Egyptian grape exports increased regarding the local production against its counterpart in Turkey in the British Market by 1% leads to increase of the Egyptian grape exports to this market by 0.81%, as well as the relative importance of the Egyptian grape exports increased regarding the local production against its counterpart in Chile in the British Market by 1% leads to increase of the Egyptian grape exports to this market by 0.14%, and the total local production of the Egyptian grape increased against its counterpart in Turkey by 1% leads to increase of the Egyptian grape exports in the British Market by 0.78%. It is found that the comparative advantage of Egyptian grape in the Russian Market that the Russian grape production increased by 1% leads to decline of Egyptian grape exports volume in the Russian Market by 0.84%, and the Egyptian grape export price has increased in Chile by 1% leads to decline of the Egyptian grape exports volume in the Russian Market by 0.88%, as well as the relative importance of the Egyptian grape exports increased regarding the local production against its counterpart in Chile in the Russian Market by 1% leads to increase of the Egyptian grape exports to this market by 0.88%. | ||
