In
recent years, the relationship between nutrition and health has been clearly
presented in the light of scientific studies. Recently, consumers have been
demanding for healthier foods; therefore, organic (ecological) agriculture and
organic food applications have emerged to meet this demand. Organic hazelnut production
has limited and its agriculture tends to increase gradually in recent years. In
this study, various pomological analyses were carried out on samples belonging
to Tombul, Foşa, Sivri, Çakıldak, Mincane and Palaz varieties of commercial importance
grown in the Black Sea Region of Turkey (Trabzon, Ordu, Samsun and Düzce cities)
where organic and conventional hazelnut production was located. Results
indicated that conventional samples had higher values in terms of nut width,
kernel length, kernel width, kernel thickness, nut weight, kernel weight and
shell thickness values. There was no difference in nut length, nut thickness,
internal cavity, kernel percentage, good kernels and the rate of defected
kernel between two types of hazelnuts.
