This research aims to assess and study the evolution of broiler breeding in Syrian
Arab Republic in general and in Syrian Coast and Lattakia Governorate particularly, in
period between 2003 – 2012, and account of production costs for all stages of
broiler
breeding according and analyze these costs, and economical evaluation of production
broiler by using some economic indicators, and clarifying the impact of crisis in Syria the
process of broiler breeding and production in Lattakia Governorate, by comparing the
prices and costs befor and after the crisis.The research shows the production efficiency for
table chicken breeding in Lattakia Governorate amounted to /1.85/ in year 2010, and /1.20/
in year 2014, while the economic efficiencyreached /1.72/ in year 2010, and /1.09/ in year
2014, the return of capital period was 1.3 years in 2010, then it became 9.8 years in 2014.
The research study was conducted in Hama Governorate during the
agricultural season of 2010 - 2011 through a stratified random sample of 201
farmers who cultivate irrigated durum wheat in the research area in order to
measure the yield gap, the pr
oductive efficiency divergence among farmers and
to determine the effect of using different amounts of the productive factors in
the production process. It also aimed to determine the contribution level of
these factors in the gap formation, as well as to determine the production phase
in which farmers of the sample stand. Descriptive analysis methodology in
addition to the multiple regression technique were used to estimate production
functions. Results showed a yield gap up to 32.6% between farmers in the first
phase and those who are in the fourth phase. The reason why productivity in
large size farms was higher than in small size farms that the second production
stage, the profitable one occurred in large size farms, while the first production
phase occurred in small economic capacity farms. So, another combination of
the production inputs can be used in order to reach a marginal product value
which equals the price value and to increase the production level plus the
productivity of the farmers in the research area.
