Practical benefits of successful export

Foreign trade is counted as an economic driving force in general because it produces incomes and generates work opportunities, primarily in the rural areas where most poor live, especially things related to the agricultural products. Therefore, foreign trade (through export) plays an effective and important role in reducing poverty.

Despite making progress in liberating the foreign trade, and encouraging export, the horizons of trade in developing countries are hindered by commercial barriers and the distorted subventions of commerce in the major developed countries, as well as high custom taxes in most developing countries.

Despite these impedimenta, We find the orientation of the developing countries towards the increasing of commerce movement through depending on exporting products and commodities which enjoy absolute or relative qualities that is because successful export has many economic and developmental benefits, of which:
