| The research aimed describing the title, how to implement on the ground in Egypt, the policy mechanisms followed in managing risks and crises, which is what the research in the questionnaire took to take the opinions of farmers and educators on how to face and manage risks and crises and proposals for solutions to them. It also aimed to determine the relative importance of the impact of risks and crises. On the livestock sector for the 2019-2020 season, identifying the risks facing dairy producers related to the livestock marketing process, identifying the risks facing poultry farmers, and the economic and environmental impacts of risks and crises on the poultry sector, A questionnaire was designed and collected during 2019-2020 in a random way, and the two governorates of Gharbia and Kafr El Sheikh were represented as one of the governorates of Lower Egypt and Beni Suef Governorate as one of the governorates of Upper Egypt, and the frequencies, percentages, and the simple and multiple regression methods were used to analyze the study data. The most important results are as follows: Farms with Open systems breeding operations are more vulnerable to problems and risks than other open farms, as the relative importance of the number of occurrences of observations in open farms reached about 50%, 16.6%, 33.3%, while the rates of impact of risks and crises on closed farms reached about 50%, 25%, 25% for Beni Suef governorates. And Kafr El-Sheikh and Al-Gharbia, respectively, of the respondents. The impact of risks on farms of less than a thousand chickens was found to be about 30%, 23.3%, 46.1% for the governorates of Beni Suef, Kafr El Sheikh and Al Gharbia, while it was estimated at 23.1%, 30.7%, and 46.1% for farms with more than a thousand chickens for the governorates of Beni Suef and Kafr El Sheikh. And the western ones, respectively, show the estimation of the economic and environmental impacts resulting from risks and crises on the poultry production sector and the different degrees of impact on the poultry production sector, where the impact of types of risks was estimated at 50%, 33.3%, 16.7% for production risks and its requirements, and about 40%, 25%, 35% For marketing and price risks, about 33.3%, 40%, 26.6% for climate change and weather risks, and about 30%, 40%, 30% for risks due to the epidemic and endemic diseases for the governorates of Beni Suef, Kafr El Sheikh, and Al Gharbia, out of the total sample size. The proposals solve the problems and risks facing those who prefer to establish an agricultural solidarity fund amounted to about 26.6%, 40%, 33.3% of the respondents, while about 25%, 50% and 25% wanted to Return cooperative societies and their main role, cooperative marketing and their role in providing production requirements. And fodder, while about 26.2%, 20% and 53.3% prefer the role of agricultural extension and farm supervision. The majority of farmers and producers want to establish an agricultural solidarity fund, agricultural insurance for the producer and poultry farms, and establish an early warning department for risks and crises. It turns out that the risks of fish production are the shortage of, the difficulty in obtaining them, the spread of diseases in a surprising way, the high risk of fish death during the breeding stages, the shortage of water and its pollution, the lack of protein in the feed, the absence of Fraezing to preserve and store fish, and the high and fluctuating prices | ||
