Abstract: This research aimed to estimate the most important indicators of food security for the most important food commodities in Egypt. The results of the research showed that the geometric mean of the self-sufficiency ratio for vegetal oils, broad beans, wheat, maize, meat, sugar, fish, milk, poultry, and rice during the period (2010-2020), respectively, were about 16.2%, 22.4%, 48%, 52.7%, 63.7%, 72.7%, 83.4%, 87.3%, 96.4%, 99.4%. The average of Production sufficiency period for consumption for each of them, respectively, were about 2.1, 3.0, 5.9, 6.5, 7.8, 8.9, 10.2, 10.6, 11.7, 12.2 months, while the Import coverage period for consumption for each of them, respectively, were about 11.1, 9.6, 6.6, 5.7, 4.3, 4.8, 2.2, 2.5, 0.54, 0.50 months..........
Key words: Self-sufficiency ratio, Production sufficiency period for consumption, Import coverage period for consumption, Surplus and deficit in domestic consumption, The volume of the strategic stock, Food security coefficient.
