المستخلص

The Egyptian government has made several decisions during the last decade to encourage the private sector to contribute effectively on all activities of the national economy. In 199 1, the ACT No.(203) was issued to reconstruct the public sector into 17 holding campanies in order to help improve the effectiveness of the units of the public business sector. This was to be achieved through the distinction between ownership and management. In January 1993, a detailed programme was prepared and proceeded in two directions. First, the sale of public assets so as to increase private property. Second, restricting some public firms to make them sellable. The study aimed at analyzing the impact of privatization on the production, marketing and manufacturing of Egyptian cotton with emphasis on Gharbia governorate. The study is organized in four main chapters. The first chapter presents the theoretical framework of privatization and a review of the available literature. The second chapter examines the impact of privatization on cotton production in Egypt, particularly in Gharbia governorate. The third chapter presents the main features of cotton marketing system under privatization with emphasis on Gharbia governorate. The fourth chapter investigates the financial performance of cotton spinning and weaving firms in Egypt with emphasis on Gharbia governorate. Egyptian cotton economy was shown to have several privatization stages including elevating compulsory crop rotations starting in the 19934 994 season, freeing the land renting and relationship between landlords and tenants by the Act (96) in 1992 and freeing cotton marketing and trading by the Acts (1 4 I), (2 10) and (2 1 1) in 1994. Privatization of cotton manufacturing took the forms of leasing some firms and or production lines to the private sector, partial and/or total sale of firms and the assignment of cotton firms to four holding companies by the Act (203) in 199 1. In terms of sale, the firrns were treated differently, about 62.6% of the shares of the Arabia cotton Ginning firm were allocated for sale in September 1996. About 6 1 % of the shares of the Nile Ginning firm were also allocated for sale in December 1996. As for Alexandria spinning and weaving film, about 1 5.6% of the shares were sold in 1994 and about 74.4% were sold in 1997. In 1996, about 12.06% of the shares of the Arabia and Motaheda spinning and weaving firm were sold. The Pollivara firm was liquidated. The study revealed that the average cost per feddan, the average rate of return per feddan, as well as the average of net income per feddan after the privatization period (1 993- 1997) are higher than that before privatization period (1 980- 1992), at the same time, the average planted area as well as the average productivity of cotton has been decreased after the privatization period compared with the prior period in both the country and Gharbia governorate. The study also revealed that the average cost per feddan lagged one year as well as cropped area of corn in the present year are the two major factors affecting production supply response of cotton in Egypt, while the average cost per feddan lagged one year as well as the cropped area of rice are the two major factors affecting the production supply response of cotton in Gharbia governorate.
