the use of the policy analysis matrix in agricultural policy analysis : a case study of crop rotations in egypt

Abstract

The increase in interest in policy analysis in recent years has arisen from the serious economic problems that faced Egypt over the past decade. These problems include severe indebtedness, acute balance of payments deficits, inflation, economic stagnation, and related problems that have in some cases reached crises proportions. The economic difficulties confronting in the late 19805 necessitated major economic policy reforms.
