Saline Water as Supplementary Irrigation and Plant Distance in Relation to The Productivity and Quality of Quinoa under Calcareous Soil Conditions.
Two field experiments were conducted during 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 winter seasons soil at the Experimental Farm of City of Scientific Researches and Technological Applications in Borg Al-Arab, Alexandria, Egypt. The experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of supplementary irrigation and planting distance on Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) cv. Nat oil yield, yield components, seed quality and water use efficiency using saline water in the arid land. The experiment design was split-plot with three replications at two seasons. Main plots were assigned to supplementary irrigation and the sub-plots were occupied by the plant distance. Under groundwater with E.C 8.3 ds/m was used for irrigation. The results revealed that there was a significant difference among the supplementary irrigation where the application of three supplementary irrigation in addition to rainfall at the first season and the application of whatever two or three supplementary irrigation in addition to rainfall grain yield and its components. Concerning the plant distance, the results illustrated that the best treatment is planting with 15 cm distance

Novel Acaricides by Nanotechnology Against Cattle Ticks and Their Effect on Physiological and Productive Performance
A field trail was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of capsules suspension formulation (CS) by nanotechnology and conventional acaricides against the cattle ticks (Hyalomma marginatum) and its effects on the body weight and blood parameters of Aberdeen angus cattle. Acaricides residues were determined in an animal's blood and milk. Thirty infested cattle were randomly divided into five groups, each one contains (3 bulls and 3 cows) based on the mean tick count. Results showed that, permethrin 25 % CS and lambada-cyhalothrin 10 % CS were significantly the most effective against ticks (2.7 and 3.8 ticks/animal, respectively) compared to fipronil 20 % SC and Acetamiprid 20 % SL (8.3 and 6.3 ticks/animal, respectively) after 70 days of treatment. Permethrin 25 % CS achieved 100 % control against highly ticks' infestation after 3 days of treatment and maintained for 56 days without its residues in blood and milk samples. Conversely, fipronil residue was detected in the cow's blood and milk (1.3 and 2.7 µg/l, respectively) however, it's non detected in bull's blood after 1 week of treatment. They gradually decreased to below detection limits after 3 and 6 weeks respectively. The animal body weight was significantly increased, additionally: the liver and kidney function were decreased to normal level in all treated animals. Finally, permethrin and lambda-cyhalothrin that formulated CS can be used as efficient acaricides and a safe alternative in tick control strategy in tropical areas.

Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) to Estimate The Price Effect of Wheat Imports from The Competitive Countries Exporting Wheat to Egypt
Egypt is considered as the first country in the world which import wheat and thus put a high pressure on the balance of payment. This required to study the major wheat markets competing to export wheat to Egypt in order to achieve the best price with the best quality.For these reasons, the main target of the study is to adopt an efficient strategy to determine factors affecting the Egyptian demand of wheat imports from the competitive countries exporting wheat to Egypt. This will help in reducing cost of imports, and thus, enhancing the balance of payment. To achieve the study purpose secondary data was collected from (CAMPS), as well as (FAO). The statistical analysis relied mainly on the step-wise procedure to estimate Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) to test the export price of the competitive countries on the Egyptian demand of wheat. The main results of the study showed that the main competitive exporting countries of wheat to the world are Russia, USA and Ukraine, but the main competitive importing countries to Egypt are Russia, Ukraine, Romania, France, Australia, USA, Boland, and Argentine. Thus for policy makers the study recommends the importance of adopting an importing policy to import wheat at a lowest price and a best quality from the competitive countries export wheat to Egypt.

Analytical Economic Study of The Impact of Climate Change on Tomato and Bean Crops in Egypt (A Case Study of El-Beheira Governorate)
Climate change is a difficult fact to deny; because agriculture is a biological industry that is particularly sensitive to any climatic changes, as crops are geographically, thermally and humid, which is expected to have a negative effect on production and therefore a greater difficulty in self-sufficiency and food gap than crops, Which are particularly sensitive to climate change such as tomato crop and food gap crops such as bean crop. The economic impacts of climate change on study crops and future status should be determined.The study found that there is a negative effect of the average temperature on the productivity of the bean yield, while the positive effect of rainfall on the productivity of the bean crop. There was also a negative effect of rainfall and moisture on the productivity of winter tomatoes, but the effect of the average temperature on winter tomato production was positive. The effect of the average temperature and humidity on tomato production was found to be negative. The scenarios also show that the productivity deficit can be compensated by increasing the area planted with the crops.
