The encroachments on agricultural lands in Damietta governorate during the period (2003-2017)
amounted to about 75885 with an area of encroachments amounting to 4043acres, which took an increasing trend, especially after the January 2011 revolution. This study mainly aimed to study the economic effects of the encroachments on agricultural lands in Damietta governorate. By studying the current situation of the phenomenon of encroachment on agricultural lands and determining the size of the deducted areas in the Republic and Damietta Governorate, determining the relative importance of the infringed areas in the Republic and Damietta Governorate during the period before the January 2011 revolution compared to the period after it. This is in order to identify the causes of the phenomenon of encroachment on agricultural lands and the economic implications of it in Damietta Governorate during the period (2003-2017)
The study showed that there is an increase in the amount of loss in both total production, total income, net revenue and workers' wages for winter and summer crops. It also showed that the total value of the estimated deficit in the agricultural trade balance for both winter and summer crops together during the post-revolution period represents more than twice the value of the estimated deficit during The pre-revolution period, while the loss of livestock after the revolution was more than double the loss before the revolution, in addition to the high costs needed to reclaim new lands to compensate for that loss.
And by studying the economic indicators of agricultural land use in plant production and agricultural and non-agricultural projects with the sample of the field study in Damietta governorate for the year 2016, it became clear that the net return achieved and the net return on the pound for most of the non-agricultural projects from carpentry workshops and furniture paint in addition to animal production projects from fattening, production and poultry farming It has far exceeded the net achieved and the net return on the pound through the cultivation of the vegetable production cycle (alfalfa + cotton), and this is what prompted many farmers to deduct areas of their lands and The study reached several recommendations, the most important of which is making use of pickles in Egyptian villages and permitting building on them, encouraging farmers to use their land for agriculture only, through the Egyptian state providing all agricultural supplies at reduced prices and helping them market their agricultural crops at high prices in order to achieve a greater return for them than any project. else.
