In this study materials include surveys which have been applied 82 businesses that received grants from TKDK and 100 businesses that have not received any grants from TKDK in the Erzurum, Kars and Agri provinces. With this study we determine enterprises that have been reached or not reached their targeted purposes or goals with WARD grants and what extent their purposes are realized in the Erzurum, Kars and Agri provinces. Treatment Effect Model was developed and used to determine the profitability of grants disbursed by TKDK. According to the survey results of the treatment effects of beekeeping enterprises, honey production in the field of beekeeping operators 2434 kg in a year when they receive grants, on the other hand it is estimated that if enterprises do not receive grants honey production will be 1572 kg in a year. This research will make an important contribution to the literature to measure the effects of grants on profitability of businesses. It is expected that the result of this research might give useful information to policy makers and the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock in Turkey.
