Purpose: The Rural Development Component of the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPARD) program, which was first implemented by the EU between 2007 and 2013, has been implemented in Turkiye since 2011. In the study, it is aimed to investigate whether the implementation of the EU Rural Development Policy in Turkiye is successful or not.

Methodology: The evaluation is made based on the data obtained from previous research, the data of the Agriculture and Rural Development Support Institution (ARDSI) and Malatya Provincial Coordinatorship, and the data obtained from a survey conducted with beneficiaries in Malatya. Pearson Correlation analysis and One-Way ANOVA analysis were performed on the data obtained through the questionnaire. According to the results of the analysis, evaluations were made on the results of the IPARD program in Turkiye.

Findings: In the study, the Turkish implementation of the IPARD program was generally successful, a large number of enterprises producing in EU standards were brought to the province of Malatya, a culture of preparing investment projects was created, experience was gained in making feasibility studies and financial analysis on the sustainability of agricultural enterprises, and it contributed directly or indirectly to employment increase.

AB KIRSAL KALKINMA PROGRAMININ TÜRKİYE UYGULAMASI: MALATYA İLİ ÖRNEĞİ

Öz

Amaç: AB tarafından ilk defa 2007-2013 yılları arasında uygulanmaya başlanan Katılım Öncesi Yardım Aracının Kırsal Kalkınma Bileşeni (IPARD) programı, Türkiye’de 2011 yılından itibaren fiili olarak uygulanmaya başlamıştır. Çalışmada, IPARD programı üzerinden AB Kırsal Kalkınma Politikasının Türkiye uygulamasının başarılı olup olmadığı araştırılması amaçlanmaktadır.

Yöntem: Çalışmada, Türkiye genelinde daha önce yapılan araştırmadan elde edilen veriler, Tarım ve Kırsal Kalkınmayı Destekleme Kurumu (TKDK) ve Malatya İl Koordinatörlüğü verileri ile Malatya ilinde destek alan faydalanıcılarla yapılan anket sonucunda elde edilen veriler esas alınmaktadır. Anket aracılığıyla elde edilen veriler, istatistiksel olarak analiz edilmekte ve analiz sonuçlarına göre IPARD programının Türkiye’deki sonuçları üzerinde değerlendirmelerde bulunulmaktadır.

Bulgular: Çalışmada, IPARD programının Türkiye uygulamasının genel olarak başarılı olduğu, IPARD programı aracılığıyla Malatya ilinde AB standartlarında üretim yapan çok sayıda işletme kazandırıldığı, yatırım projesi hazırlama kültürü oluşturulduğu, tarımsal işletmelerinin sürdürülebilirliğine ilişkin fizibilite çalışmaları ve mali analiz yapma konusunda tecrübeler edinildiği, doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak istihdam artışına önemli katkılar sunduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Özgünlük: IPARD programının Türkiye'deki başarısı ile ilgili literatürde çok az sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmaların hiçbirinde anket yöntemiyle faydalanıcılardan veri toplanmamıştır ve Malatya ili örneğiyle ilgili daha önce yapılmış bir çalışma bulunmamaktadır.
