Clarifying the spatial distribution of agricultural equipment and its correlation with production quantities and cultivated area in Anbar Governorat

Abstract

The research reveals a clear variation among the districts of the study area regarding the spatial distribution of agricultural equipment. The number of harvesters varies from one district to another, as do the numbers of tractors and modern irrigation systems. This variation significantly impacts the differences in production quantities and cultivated areas across various agricultural crops. The study also indicates a strong correlation and a direct relationship between production quantities and cultivated areas. However, the correlation between production quantities and agricultural equipment varies by crop, ranging from weak to moderate and sometimes even exhibiting an inverse relationship in certain crops
