AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION-INCOME RELATIONSHIP in TURKEY: AN APPLICATION on NUTS-2 REGIONS

Abstract

Purpose: As known, increase in added value and productivity in agriculture in a region increases the agricultural production and income level. Considering that with Turkey's productive farmland, the work to be done in this area is expected to contribute to the country's prosperity. The main purpose of this study is to test the relationship between per capita GDP and agricultural production using econometric methods for the 2009-2017 period in NUTS-2 Regions in Turkey.

Methodology: In this study, Panel Data (Pooled Least Squares, Fixed Effects and Random Effects) methods are used to test the relationship between agricultural production and GDP per capita.

Findings: In Level-2 Regions, GDP per capita increases as agricultural production value, electricity consumption and education level increase in the period of 2009-2017.

Originality: Due to the limited number of studies testing the agricultural production-income relationship using Panel Data Method in Nuts-2 regions, this study is thought to contribute to the relevant literature.

Keywords

• Agricultural Production
• GDP Per Capita
• Panel Data Analysis.

TÜRKİYE’DE TARIMSAL ÜRETİM-GELİR İLİŞKİSİ: DÜZEY-2 BÖLGELERİ ÜZERİNE BİR UYGULAMA

Öz

Amaç: Bir bölgede tarımda katma değer ve verimlilik artışı tarımsal üretimi ve gelir düzeyini artırmaktadır. Türkiye’nin verimli tarım arazilerine sahip olduğu düşünüldüğünde, bu alanda yapılacak çalışmaların ülke refahına katkıda bulunacağı beklenmektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, Türkiye İstatistiki Bölge Birimleri Sınıflandırması'na göre Düzey-2 Bölgeleri kapsamında, 2009-2017 dönemi için tarımsal üretim ile kişi başına GSYH arasındaki ilişkinin ekonometrik yöntemler kullanılarak test edilmesidir.

Yöntem: Bu çalışmada, tarımsal üretim ile kişi başına GSYH arasındaki ilişkinin test edilmesinde Panel Veri (Havuzlanmış En Küçük Kareler, Sabit Etkiler ve Rassal Etkiler) yöntemleri kullanılmıştır.

Bulgular: Düzey-2 Bölgelerinde, 2009-2017 döneminde tarımsal üretim değeri, elektrik tüketimi ve eğitim düzeyi arttıkça kişi başına GSYH artmaktadır.

Özgünlük: Düzey-2 bölgelerinde tarımsal üretim-gelir ilişkisini Panel Veri Yöntemi kullanarak test eden çalışmaların kısıtlı olması sebebiyle, bu çalışmanın ilgili literatüre katkı sunabileceği düşünülmektedir.
