Export competitiveness of Türkiye's agricultural machinery and equipment sector

Abstract

The aim of the study is to determine the competitiveness of Turkey’s agricultural machinery and equipment sector. Balassa’s Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) approach was used in the period 2002-2021 by using International Trade Center database. Balassa’s Revealed Comparative Advantage RCA2 Index for 39 agricultural machinery and equipment product groups (their sub-product groups of 69, 82, 84, 87) related to Harmonized System 6-digit product classification, Vollrath’s Relative Export Advantage-RXA, Net Export Index-NEI, and Export-Import Rate Index-EIRI indices were calculated. According to the results, while Turkey has a competitive advantage in 13 of the agricultural machinery and equipment product group exports, it has a competitive disadvantage in the other 26 product groups.

Keywords

Agricultural Machinery and Equipment, Revealed Comparative Advantages, Vollrath Index, Net Export Index, Export-Import Rate Index.
