Therefore, the research aims at achieving a set of goals which, in aggregate, constitute an agricultural policy related to measuring the growth in total agricultural productivity (TFP) for both developing and developed countries (Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Australia) DEAP data Growth in total agricultural productivity in developing countries (Jordan, Saudi Arabia) declined by an average of (0.45 , 0.59)% respectively compared to developed countries (Canada, Australia) which reached (0.82 , 0.88)% respectively. The study has a set of conclusions, the most important being the low capacity Competitiveness in most developing countries and low production and low quality may be due to high costs resulting from high input production prices.
