Abstract

Due to the availability of different climatic characteristics and soil types most of the vegetables

can be produced in Turkey. Country is divided to 9 regions in terms of vegetable production and each region is

known to have the potential of different vegetable production. Tomato is not only the mostly grown vegetable but

also it has the widest range of processed product in Turkey. Turkey has 28.6 million tons of vegetable production

and also it is the fourth country in the World. The vegetable production of 86% is open field vegetable and 14%

of greenhouse production. Turkey has 12.61 million t. tomato production. This production includes table (8.170 t)

and industrial (4.445 t) tomato. And tomato is the most growing vegetable with 42% of total production in Turkey.

Tomato production of Southeast Region is 677 600 t in 66 474 ha. The region has 359 734 t table tomato production

in 39.571 ha and the industrial tomato production is 317 886 t in 26 903 ha. The region has great potential in terms

of tomato production. South Eastern Anatolia Region has strong and big potential for marketing and growing of

tomato besides Marmara region. So development of the tomato based industry will ultimately increase the new

investment and employment opportunities in the region. Existing status of the tomato agriculture and the tomato

processing industry and their future in Southeastern Anatolia Region were focused of this study.

Türkiye Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi’ nin Sanayi Domatesi Üretim Potansiyeli

Abstract

Türkiye’de farklı iklim ve toprak yapısı nedeni ile birçok sebze türü üretilebilmektedir. Ülkemiz sebzecilik

bakımından 9 bölgeye ayrılmakta ve her bölgenin de farklı sebzecilik potansiyeline sahip olduğu bilinmektedir.

Domates ülkemizde en fazla üretilen sebze olarak ilk sırayı alırken işleme sanayi olarak da ürün yelpazesi en geniş

olan bir sebzedir. Türkiye 28.6 milyon ton sebze üretimi ile dünyada 4. Sırada yer almaktadır. Sebze üretiminin %86’

ı açıkta %14’ ü ise örtüaltında yapılmaktadır. Türkiye 12.61 milyon ton domates üretimine sahiptir. Bu üretimin 8.

171milyon tonu sofralık, 4.445 milyon tonu ise sanayi tipi oluşturmakta ve domates Türkiye sebze üretiminin %42

si karşılayarak en fazla üretilen sebze olarak ilk sırada yer almaktadır. Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesinin 66 474 ha

alanda 677 600 ton domates üretimi bulunmaktadır. Bölgenin 39 571 ha alanda 359 734 ton sofralık ve 26 903 ha

alanda ise 317 886 ton sanayi tipi domates üretimi bulunmaktadır. Bölge domates üretimi bakımından büyük bir

potansiyele sahiptir. Çalışma ile sektörün yoğunlaştığı Marmara bölgesi dışında güçlü bir Pazar ve yetiştiricilik

potansiyeline sahip olduğu düşünülen Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesinin ürün bazında sektör olarak (domatese dayalı

işleme sanayi) değerlendirilmesine dikkat çekmesi beklenmektedir. Böylece bölgede yeni yatırım ve istihdam

alanlarının açılması beklenmektedir.
