| Abstract | ||
| Maize is considered an important industrial crop, which plays an important role in the national trade and it has aspecial nutrition importance in direct and indirect way. A random sample of (279) farmers was choosen for this study in Wast governorate which represents 10% of the farmers of this crop. As considering work and capital as independent variable affecting production of Dunum as an dependent variable, the result of the estimation by using a Cobb-Dogllus function was as follows: Where Y= production of maize (Dun). L= labour (Hr/P). K= lapiral (Dinar/P). This model was significance to t-value and F- test, and this function clears that 89% of the variation of production is due to the variation of work and Capital (R2 = 0.89). Optimum combination of work and Capital were found by using (91) hr/dun. Of work and (183810) Din/Dun. The function also clears that these farms are working in decreasing neturns to scale, where the sum of the elastisties of the function was (0.71) which clears that these farms are working in the second stage of production. | ||
