Abstract

In Türkiye, agricultural activities are carried out on an area of 38482000 hectares. In Türkiye, where different climates are seen, animal husbandry is done intensively. Some of the animal and herbal products produced are consumed in the country and some are exported and consumed abroad. Many agricultural wastes are generated during animal and plant production activities. These wastes are fresh manures formed during animal production, wastes formed from grain and industrial plants during plant production, wastes formed during and after production in greenhouses, pruning wastes and wastes formed as a result of evisceration of hard-shelled fruits. In this study, agricultural wastes that can be obtained from these products were calculated based on the products with the highest production. According to the results of the study, in the light of 2022 data, the annual amount of manure that can be obtained from our livestock is 20.722 million tons on dry basis, 16.805 million tons of waste from grain and industrial plants, 393,048 thousand tons of waste generated during and after production in greenhouses, 3.045 million tons of pruning waste, wastes generated as a result of evisceration of hard-shelled fruits are 550.186 thousand tons and olive pulp (pomace) resulting from olive oil extraction is 1.630 million tons.
