| Abstract | This chapter provides a brief overview of the agricultural situation in Turkey since the mid-1980s, with particular emphasis on the nature of the structural impediments faced by the agricultural sector. It discusses trends in: the socio-economic role of agriculture in the overall economy; changes in farm structures (e.g. farm holdings, sizes, types and human capital); the value of production, input and output prices, productivity and agricultural incomes; agricultural trade (e.g. trends in agricultural exports, imports and the agricultural trade balance); and the relative economic importance and structure of the agri-food sector. As trends in agricultural policy in Turkey are closely linked to the evolution of the economy as a whole, and cannot be assessed in isolation from the macro-economic context, a brief discussion of key macro-economic aspects, such as fiscal deficits, inflation and exchange-rate changes, is also presented. |
