Öğe ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONS BETWEEN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION AND WETLAND BY THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL SCALING METHOD(Scibulcom Ltd, 2010) Kubas, A.; Inan, I. H.; Hurma, H.; Erbay, E. R.; Guher, H.Wetlands are of great importance in terms of their flora and fauna, and natural resources. These places help to protect the balance of nature by letting birds and plants live and reproduce. They also affect the climate of the region because of their water reserves. The National Park of the Gala lake is one of the most important wetlands on the intercontinental migratory bird route in the Enez county of Edirne in Turkey. In the last 30 years, socio-economic developments in the Thrace region have had environmental effects on the Gala lake. In this research various problems that were confronted in the Gala lake regarding the environment were analysed. In this connection 135 producers living around the lake were visited to collect research data. Data including the producer approach towards problems and solutions to the problems were analysed by the Multidimensional Scaling Method. According to the research findings farming and industrialisation increase the environmental problems on the lake. Pesticides and fertilisers used for farming have been reaching the Gala lake and forcing the lake absorption capacity. Another important problem is the high pollution level in the Ergene and Meric rivers. For that reason, industrial and urban wastewater should not reach the the Meric and Ergene rivers or at least wastewaters should be purified before reaching the lake. On the other hand, the controlled paddy farming method can help to reduce negative effects on the lake. Furthermore, the level of fertiliser and pesticide usage should be monitored by specialists to keep the farmers informed concerning suitable input usage.Öğe Determination of consumer's attitudes towards organic vegetables and fruits in Istanbul(Scibulcom Ltd, 2007) Oraman, Y.; Inan, I. H.In this study, organic buyers were compared with non buyers, in order to identify main differences between them. Buying behaviour and associated attitudes were explored by analysing data from a group of 385 households in Istanbul. In this research consumer's attitude towards organic vegetables and fruits and purchase likelihood in Istanbul were indicated, information deficits about organic products were examined and consumer's concerns were analysed about health effects of pesticide residues and chemical fertilisers, consumption of organic vegetables and fruits. Our results indicated that the major barriers for organic vegetables and fruits were the high price (50.2%) and insufficient supply and distribution (35.7%). Research results suggested that generally the consumers are more motivated by food safety, but pesticide avoidance, better quality, genetically modification avoidance taste are also important factors.Öğe Economic Analysis of Edirne Village Development Cooperatives Union(Univ Namik Kemal, 2007) Serinikli, N.; Inan, I. H.In this research, the management activities of Edirne Village Development Cooperatives' Union were evaluated and revenues and costs required for economic analysis were calculated and profit and loss income statement was estimated for the years 2002, 2003 and 2004. Data for Gross Margin Analysis were supplied from income and loss statement and thus Table comprising gross margins was formed covering all the activities of The Union. Gross Margin Analysis was made in order to determine economic performance of The Union by means of the data obtained from economic results of the operational activities in the years 2002, 2003 and 2004. The Union should develop its present activities so as to survive in the future. Therefore, suggestions were made for the expansion of the profitable activities and to improve nonprofitable activities in order to make them profitable.Öğe An important role of local people to joining wetland protection and analysis of contingent valuation methods(Scibulcom Ltd, 2007) Kubas, A.; Inan, I. H.; Hurma, H.; Erbay, E. R.The Gala lake is one of the most important wetlands of the world which is located oil the bird migration path. It has been announced as a nature conservation area by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, the Republic of Turkey. Besides, the Gala lake has rich flora and fauna, and it is also on the route of the migratory birds from Africa to Europe. Moreover, the Gala lake region has an important function for protection and reproduction of native and migratory birds. The Gala take has a sensitive and fragile ecology with respect to absorption capacity characteristics. The lake is not only under the harmful effects of pesticides and fertilisers used for paddy farming, but also under the threat of industrial and households waste pollution caused by the Ergene and Meric rivers. The farmers living around the Gala lake are rather sensitive in protecting the lake and they have declared their support for every kind of work in this respect. By using the contingent valuation method, it is asked for willingness to pay and to accept prices for the protection of the lake to the farmers. It is found that the price for their willing to pay is $ 6.88 (WTP) and willingness to accept $ 11.58 (WTA). Controlled Production method must be used for paddy fanning around the Gala lake. The amount of the farm inputs to be used in farming must be determined according to the absorption capacity of the lake and must be calculated by experts. In addition to this, the contact of the lake with pollution sources, illegal hunting and collection of reed must be prevented. Local people living in the region have not got enough information for protecting the lake. But the planned study aimed at the protection of the lake must be compatible with the EU regulations and a model should be developed for participation of the local people.Öğe The Structure and Fundamental Problems of Vegetable Oil Industry in Turkey(Univ Namik Kemal, 2006) Inan, I. H.; Kubas, A.; Gaytancioglu, O.; Azabagaoglu, M. O.; Unakitan, G.There are 167 oil factories in Turkey, with a capacity not only to meet Turkey's domestic demand but also for export purpose. Of these, 8 are concerned with the production and the marketing of margarine, while the others process unrefined and refined oil. In Turkey, the vegetable oil industry has a capacity about 6 million tons of seed grounding and 3 million tons of unrefined oil capacity. In addition, there is also a 950 thousand tons capacity for margarine production. However, the insufficiency of unrefined material has resulted low level capacity usage. For example, the capacity usage was realized as 50% for seed grounding, 47% for unrefined oil production and 40% for margarine production. In this research, the various problems such as quality of unrefined material, finance, storage, etc faced by the vegetable oil industry, from the supliance of unrefined material to domestic and international marketing have been investigated. This study was carried out thoroughly in Turkey for aiming to identify measurements in order to vegetable oil industry could operate near to full capacity.
