The Impact Of Investment On Food Exports

Abstract

This paper attempted to study the impact of investment on food exports in Algeria in the Context of Economic Diversification during the period from 2000 to 2023. The inductive approach was followed to cover all theoretical aspects related to the study, using both descriptive and analytical methods. As for the empirical side, a quantitative approach was adopted using (ARDL) model. Among the findings of the study, it was observed that foreign direct investment did not contribute to the promotion of Algerian exports during the period from 2000 to 2023. It was found that the impact of FDI on Algerian exports is negative, indicating an inverse relationship between FDI and exports. Specifically, an increase of one unit in investment would lead to a decrease of 10.55825 units in Algerian exports. This result aligns closely with the current reality of the Algerian economy
