Among the most important findings were that the average quantity of Egypt's horticultural crop exports reached approximately 2.28 million tons during the period (2000-2022), the average quantity of Egypt's potato exports reached about 448.4 thousand tons during the same period, and the average export price per ton of potatoes in Egypt during this period was about $343.3/ton. The main importing countries of Egyptian potatoes during the period (2016-2022) were (Russia, Greece, Italy, Lebanon, and the United Arab Emirates), which ranked in the top five in terms of quantity and value, with average exported quantities of (213.1, 70.033, 47.861, 46.613, 41.582) thousand tons respectively.Another key finding was that the production advantage of Egyptian potatoes reached about 1.14, indicating the continuous growth of Egyptian potato production. The apparent comparative advantagereached about 15.85, and *the price comparative advantage, which measures the ratio between the export price of Egyptian potatoes and the average global price of other exporting countries, was less than one during the period (2001-2007),
