هدفت الدراسة إلى اكتشاف مدى استخدام ممارسات المحاسبة الإدارية في المنشآت الزراعية السورية العامة و أهمية هذا الاستخدام، فضلاً عن معرفة أي من تلك الممارسات الأكثر شيوعاً و أهمية، و تحديد معوقات هذا الاستخدام إن وجدت. لذلك تم إجراء مسح ميداني باستخدام الاستبانة على منشآت القطاع الزراعي العامة في سورية, حيث تم توزيع /42/ استبانة على هذا المجتمع, تم استرجاع /26/ استبانة منها, و قد أظهرت نتائج تحليل البيانات أن هناك ضعفاً كبيراً و مستوى متدنياً في تطبيق ممارسات المحاسبة الإدارية, على الرغم من الأهمية (و إن كانت متوسطة) التي منحها أفراد العينة لتلك الممارسات, إذ تبين أن هناك سيطرة لممارسة الموازنات التخطيطية, و هذا يتفّق بشكل كبير مع الدراسات المتعلقة بالقطاعات الأخرى. أما بالنسبة لممارسات المحاسبة الإدارية غير المستخدمة فإن الدراسة أظهرت أن عدم التبني عائد إلى ضعف المعرفة و الخبرة لدى الكادر المحاسبي و الإداري, و عدم توفر الدعم المطلوب, على الرغم من وجود المنافسة اللازمة كعامل ضاغط, فضلاً عن عامل كبر حجم هذه المنشآت الذي يشكل حافزاً أساساً لتطبيق هذه الممارسات.
The study aimed at exploring the extent of using of management accounting practices in Public Agricultural Firms in Syria, and the importance of this use. In addition, it aimed at knowing which of these practices is the most common and important, and the difficulties of this using. The study was based on a questionnaire, which was distributed on public Agricultural Firms in Syria. There were (42) questionnaires that were distributed on this Society, but (26) questionnaires were completed and retrieved. In spite of the attention paid by the members of the samples to these practices, the results showed great weakness and low level in the application of management accounting practices. As to the management accounting practices which weren't used, the study showed that the lack of usage is due to the lack of knowledge and experience of the managerial and accounting staff and the absence of the support. This is the case in spite of the presence of competition and the large size of these firms that is a basic factor for the application of these practices.

The end of the twentieth century witnessed increasing interest in environmental
issues from governments around the world, accompanied by great interest from researchers
in the subject of environmental management accounting (EMA).Some research on th
e
subject emphasized the importance and benefits gained from the measurement of
environmental costs and the challenges associated with such measurement. However,
research that tried to document the extent of using (EMA) techniques, and the barriers of
such use, are scarce in the management accounting literature.
This research explores the extent of adopting (EMA)techniques in a sample of Syrian
firms, and the barriers of such adoption.
A questionnaire was developed and distributed to (100) firms working in the costal
area of Syria, of which (23) completed questionnaires were returned and interred into SPSS
for statistical analysis. Sample size in the research is affected by the war in Syria that made
most of the companies out of service.
Results of this research showed that (70%) of the participating firms reported
usageof (EMA) techniques.However results of Binomial test showed that this proportion is
insignificant at 5% significance level. It was found also that a significant proportion (83%)
of the firms in the sample measure environmental treatment costs for the internal usage,
while insignificant proportions (61%, and 65% respectively) measure prevention and
environmental management costs, and the value of wasted material purchased. Significant
barriers for not using (EMA) techniques, reported by respondents, include: difficulty of
the monetary measurement of environmental costs, the absence of a unified guide of
environmental cost measurement at the level of industry, and the lack of knowledge by
management on (EMA).
This research examines the impact of stakeholders’ pressures on the environmental
management accounting (EMA) adoption level. Drawing from the stakeholders theory, the
research seeks to identify the extent to which stakeholders’ pressures (governme
nt,
customers, labor unions, and local community) influences EMA adoption level among
manufacturing companies in Syria. Hypotheses were constructed for there is a positive
relationship between the stakeholders’ pressures and EMA adoption level. A total of 62
managers working in 20 Syrian manufacturing companies participated in the survey.
stakeholders’ pressures was tested against the EMA adoption level via simple regression
analysis, correlation, and frequency rate. The findings indicated that there is a positive
relationship between the government, customers pressures and the EMA adoption level. In
addition, there is no relationship between the labor unions, local community pressures and
the EMA adoption level. The findings were discussed, and some recommendations and
suggestions were provided.
This research examines the impact of physical environmental Uncertainty on the
environmental management accounting (EMA) adoption level. Specifically, it aims at

resources and services used by the organization, environmental products, markets and
demand, green competition, environmental technology in the industry, the behavior of
environmental stakeholders in the organization, and how major environmental issues are
affecting the organization concerning EMA adoption among manufacturing companies in
Syria. Drawing from the contingency theory, the research seeks to identify the extent to
which physical environmental uncertainty influences EMA adoption level. Hypotheses
were constructed based on a direct proportion relationship between the physical
environmental uncertainty and EMA adoption level. A total of 68 managers working in 20
Syrian manufacturing companies participated in the survey. Physical environmental
uncertainty was tested against the EMA adoption level via simple regression analysis and
correlation. The findings indicated that there is a direct proportion relationship between the
physical environmental uncertainty and the EMA adoption level. The findings were
discussed, and some recommendations and suggestions were provided.
