Abstract

The results indicated that the elements of wheat crop production in the sample are as follows: Area, seeds, pesticides, municipal fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, human labor, automated work, and irrigation. The average value of the total cost in the first production pattern for the two centers of El Fateh and Manfalout was 8680 and 8755 pounds / acre, respectively, and the third production pattern exceeded the value of the farm price where it was about 815, 830 pounds / Ardp for the two centers Manfalut and El Fateh respectively.
Also the results explained increasing in the economic efficiency of the land resource in the third production pattern over its counterparts in the first and second, which shows the economic feasibility in the productive expansion of wheat crop using this pattern in the new lands in Assiut governorate.
The results show that the net return per acre in the total sample in El Fateh and Manfalout centers was about 6258, 6777 pounds / acre respectively, and that there was a significant superiority of the net return per feddan for the second and third production pattern, while it was found that there are significant differences between the net return per feddan of the first pattern and the net return of the second and the third production pattern.
