内容説明
Egypt has one of the oldest and most productive agricultural systems in the world, yet it has become one of the world's largest food importers. The government is currently implementing a major agricultural reform programme and Egyptian agriculture is in the process of change.
This single reference, written by Egyptian agricultural experts and other specialists, provides a comprehensive source of background information on Egypt's agriculture up to the early 1990s. It ranges widely, covering the natural environment, the people, the government, and the economy, in addition to detailed descriptions of agricultural production and development in the Northern Littoral region, the Delta, Middle and Upper Egypt, and the deserts. There are also chapters on fertilizers,
feedstuffs, machinery, marketing and price determination, agricultural education, and research.
