Description

Explore the profound shifts in Egypt's agricultural landscape with this scholarly study from Routledge. Following a long period of stability, the Egyptian agricultural sector faced sudden changes triggered by the 1973 oil price increases and the implementation of Anwar Sadat's Open Door economic policies. This book analyzes the complex transition that occurred as workers migrated from rural Egypt to urban centers and high-wage positions in oil-exporting nations. It examines how this migration created a labor shortage and drove up real wages in the agricultural sector. At the same time, a massive U.S. foreign assistance program encouraged rapid mechanization across Egyptian farms. Readers will gain a detailed understanding of how labor markets and farm technology evolved during this transformative decade. This text provides a deep look into the economic drivers that reshaped rural life and agricultural production in Egypt, making it a valuable resource for those studying economic policy and development.
