TY - JOUR TT - Determination of energy balance of wheat production in Turkey: A case study of Eskil district AU - Gökdoğan, Osman AU - Sevim, Behlül PY - 2016 DA - November JF - Tekirdağ Ziraat Fakültesi Dergisi JO - JOTAF PB - Tekirdag Namik Kemal University WT - DergiPark SN - 1302-7050 SP - 0 EP - 0 VL - 13 IS - 4 N2 - This study aims to make an energy balance of wheat production in Eskil district of Aksaray province in Turkey. In order to determine the energy analysis of wheat, surveys have been conducted in 151 wheat farms, located around 12 villages of Eskil district and all selected through simple random sampling method. During the production season in 2013, the energy input-output ratio of the 151 wheat farms have been determined through observations and face-to-face questionnaires. Regarding wheat production, energy input has been calculated as 25719.87 MJ ha-1, while energy output has been calculated as 73691.34 MJ ha-1, and energy output / input ratio has been defined as 2.87. The composition of energy inputs is 44.11% chemical fertilizers energy, 14.55% wheat seed energy, 14.02% water of irrigation, 13.15% diesel fuel energy, 11.17% electricity energy, 1.39% machinery energy, 0.93% transportation energy, 0.48% chemical energy and 0.20% human labour energy. Energy use efficiency, energy productivity, specific energy and net energy in wheat production have been calculated as 2.87; 0.20 kg MJ-1; 4.91 MJ kg-1 and 47971.33 MJ ha-1, respectively.
