| Abstract | ||
| The research hypothesis is that there was retreating in the growth rate of crops in Iraq due to low production and productivity. The aim of this research is to measure the contribution of each main factor in total output .This could be achieved through establishing functional relationship between output value and the main factors affecting on it such as labour , public capital , private capital , and land . The research results showed that labor was the most effective factor in aggregate production function , but due to low growth (0.3%) its influence was limited (0.0108) in output growth . This means that labourer number in agricultural sector did not grow in natural way during study period which caused a low effect of this factor on output growth. Land also had positive effect on production function, but due to its low rate of growth during study period, its contribution in growth was relatively low. Private capital had a negative growth rate during the study period, it also had a negative effect on production function due continuous decrease in it during study period in agricultural sector, this made its contribution in output growth negative du to the interaction between the two negative effects. The effect of public capital contribution in output growth negative. The conclusion is that there was low growth in output due to low growth in main factors. Some recommendations were forwarded. | ||
