During the study period (1990-2010), the study showed that the trade balance of nitrogen fertilizers in Egypt, has achieved an annual deficit equivalent to 21.7 million dollars in the first study period and equal to about 36.64 million in the second period. As can be seen that the rate of access to the exports of nitrogenous fertilizers, the Egyptian equivalent of about (-1.63), (1.43) annual average for the periods respectively. As evidenced by the presence of competitive positive For Egypt in the export of nitrogenous fertilizers, due to the low level of its export price for the right one.

Recommendations:
1-Increase domestic production of nitrogenous fertilizers through the establishment of new plants, and new technological ways of production.
2-The need for fertilizer needs assessment every five years at the level of the Republic so as to provide the largest amount of production for export to abroad. |
