The tourism sector is among the primary sectors that demand input from the agricultural sector. Thus, the more developed tourism, the more development expected in agriculture. For this reason, it is especially important to determine the long- and short-run effects of tourism demand on the agricultural sector. In this context, this study aims to investigate the effect of international tourism demand on the share of agricultural sector revenues in the Gross Domestic Product. For this aim, research analyses were conducted using the annual data of the variables between 1990 and 2018 with the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds test. The results of the analyses revealed that the demand for international tourism increases the share of agricultural sector revenues in the Gross Domestic Product in the short-run. In the long-run, the 1% increase in international tourism demand reduces the share of agricultural sector revenues in GDP by 0.4%. Finally, the error correction coefficient estimated between 0 and -1 value indicates that short-term deviations will be balanced in the long run. At the end of the study, economic and political inferences are made based on these findings.}, number={49}, publisher={Van Yuzuncu Yıl University}
