After a long period of stability, Egypt's agricultural sector
experienced sudden change due to the 1973 oil price increases and
Anwar Sadat's Open Door economic policies. Workers left rural Egypt
for the cities and high-wage jobs in the oil-exporting countries.
The resulting aEUROoelabor shortageaEURO and rising real wages in
agriculture coincided with a massive U.S. foreign assistance
program that has been encouraging the rapid mechanization of
Egyptian agriculture. This book examines changes in agricultural
labor markets and farm technology in Egypt during the last, decade,
focusing especially on the social consequences and long-term
prospects of mechanization.
