Abstract
The steady development of population growth along with incomes, on the one hand, and lower production, have led to a decline in self-sufficiency in rice and wheat yields, and the importation of large quantities of them to fill the widening food gap, so the research's interest in using a crop sequencing model is on the same The land is season-by-season instead of leaving the land of Fallow throughout the winter season after the summer rice planting season, which means no full exploitation of productive resources. A random sample of 204 rice growers was covered in the governorates of Najaf and Diwaniyah distributed 100 forms to farmers using a system of wheat after rice, 104 forms for farmers leaving the land after planting rice, and use of Data Envelopment Analysis method to estimate production efficiency Technical, economic efficiency and allocative efficiency in the direction of change of capacity, stability of the yield of the input capacity under the production function variables, and according to cost function variables. The research concluded from the research that the extent to which farmers of rice and wheat crops are more likely to be on the farmers of the fallow system is in total revenue and profit for the single dunum. This means that the sequencing-planting system is better than the fallow system. Assuming their loss of the winter season and the lack of full use of resources compared to the farmers of the rice and wheat crop system. average technical efficiency is almost halved when the capacity returns for the farmers of the Bor system are stable, and the average technical efficiency of the grain of rice for the fallow system was 81%, 86% Assuming stability and change in capacity returns, which indicates that a large percentage of farmers are working within optimum capacity returns, and that the average technical efficiency of the sample of the system for the crop of rice and wheat yields 80%, 88% assuming stability and change of capacity returns, which indicates that a small percentage of farmers are working Beyond the limits of optimum capacity returns. Therefore, the research recommends the need to adopt a system of planting successive rice and wheat crops and not to leave the use of land in the winter season of fallow.
