هدف البحث إلى دراسة مؤشرات التبني لتقنية الري الحديث لمزارعي محصول القمح المـروي فـي محافظة الحسكة لموسم 2010/2011 ، و تأثير العوامل الاقتصادية و الاجتماعية المؤثرة في تبنـي قـرار مزارعي القمح تقنية الري الحديث، و التعرف على المعوقات التي تحد من تبنيها. اسـتخدم فـي تحليـل البيانات الارتباط و الانحدار الثنائي المنطقي. أظهرت النتائج أن 78.77 % مـن إجمـالي أفـراد العينـة المدروسة يستخدمون الري الحديث في ري مزروعاتهم، و الباقي يستخدمون الري التقليدي، و قـد حقـق الري بالرذاذ أعلى نسبة معدل تبني (33.63%) مقارنة بتقنيات الري الحديثـة الأخـرى، يليـه الـري السطحي المطور على خطوط بنسبة (11.11%) و إن ارتفاع تكاليف الشبكة تلعب الدور الأساسـي فـي عدم تبني 55.42 % من المزارعين للري الحديث، و بلغ معدل التبني الأقصى المتوقع حتـى عـام 2025 نحو 95 %. فضلاً عما سبق تبين وجود علاقة ارتباط معنوية عكسية بين تابع التبني و كـل مـن نـسبة العاملين بالزراعة إلى إجمالي القوة العاملة في الأسرة، و عدد سنوات العمل في زراعة محـصول القمـح المروي، و علاقة ارتباط معنوية طردية بين هذا التابع و كل من غلة محصول القمح المروي، و المـستوى التعليمي، و تواصل المزارع مع الإرشاد الزراعي.
The research was conducted at Al- Hassaka province during the 2010 - 2011 season to study socio-economic factors and other factors affecting the decision of wheat farmers to adopt the technology of modern irrigation and to identify the barriers that limit the adoption of these techniques. Correlation and binary logistic regression was applied for data analysis. The results showed that 77.78% of the total farmers studied were using modern irrigation to irrigate their wheat crops and the rest were using traditional irrigation and this percentage is expected to increase from 77.78% in 2010 to 95% in 2025 with an annual rate of nearly 1.15%. Sprinkler irrigation adopted by larger percentage (63.33%) of farmers who adopted modern irrigation techniques and followed by the developed surface irrigation on lines (11.11%). It was observed that the high cost of the network played a fundamental role in the lack of 42.55% of farmers to adopt modern irrigations Statistical analysis showed that there was an inverse significant relationship between each of independent variables (percentage of farming labor force to total family labor force, farmer's experience) and the dependant variable adoption of modern irrigation techniques but there was a positive significant relationship between adoption of modern irrigation and other independent variables such as, cereals yield, farmers education level and direction of the farmer towards the agricultural extension.

The main objective was to study the economic efficiency of Durum wheat in
AL-Hassaka governorate during the growing season of 2010/2011 through a
stratified random sample included 119 farmers distributed in 10% of the target
villages. The results
showed that Duma 1 variety had achieved the highest
proportion in relation to the rate of adoptions and the highest adoption rate
compared with other varieties cultivated with irrigated Durum wheat in ALHassaka
governorate. Sham 3 variety had also the highest adoption rate
(47.47%) and widely distributed compared with other varieties Durum wheat
cultivated as a rain fed crop. The results also showed that the net return of
irrigated Durum wheat was in AL-malkia and amounted to 1653.17 Syrian
Liras/ Dunum while losing -261.50 Syrian Liras per Donum in AL-kamshli.
Duma 1 variety reached the highest net return (2443.58 Syrian Liras per
Donum) of irrigated Durum wheat. The net return of rain fed Durum wheat
was observed in AL-Malkia and amounted to 792.92 Syrian Liras per Donum
while losing -158.18 Syrian Liras per Donum in AL-kamshli. Sham 7 variety
had the highest net return of rain fed Durum wheat and amounted to 1847.48
Syrian Liras per Donum.
The research aimed to measure the economic and technical efficiency
using analysis of the random border production function (Stochastic Frontier
Analysis) for cotton farms irrigated by surface immersion way in Qamishli
district in Al Hassakah prov
ince. Preliminary data for 89 farms spread over 12
villages were collected on the basis of field survey using the stratified random
sample in selection the research sample. Results showed that the value of the
gross margin per unit area amounted to about 10308.4 SP /dunums and the
value of the gross margin per unit was 0.63 SP. It was found that the variable
costs were responsible significantly for 38% of the change in the return and
farms are still in the phase of yields increased. This indicated that cotton farms
had reached the stage of diminishing returns and the yield size was negative.
Thus, it is not anymore recommended to increase the cotton production
irrigated by surface way. It was also found that the average value of the
technical efficiency of farms amounted 88.58% and the largest number of
farms had achieved a technical efficiency higher than the average in the studied
sample.
The research aimed at studying the impact of the most
important economic and social factors affecting the adoption of new
irrigation techniques، namely water collective management in ALGhab
basin in Syria .The research accomplished by taking a
si
mple random sample of 264 farmers .Because of the nature of
dependent variable which is dichotomous ،(1= adoption of water
collective management،0=otherwise)،The binary logistic regression
was used.
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.
Using modern irrigation started as individual initiatives, then the government supported the
introduction of these techniques through the national programme for transferring to modern
irrigation that started late 2000. This programme set up to conv
ert all irrigated area, where
possible, from traditional methods to modern irrigation systems during 10 years period. The
government has issued several decisions for facilitating transfer process and ironing out the
financial and administrative constraints facing the implementation of this programme.
