Objectives of this study was to determine the factors affecting the yield in confectionery sunflower product ion in Pasinler district of Erzurum province. In the study. the number of questionnaires was determined by using the simple random sampling method based on the main population ratios. Overall, 84 questionnaires were administered to the households of 13 villages with the highest sunflower production in the district. In order to determine the factors affecting the confectionery sunflower yield in the study, the socioeconomic and demographic factors of the producers and factor analysis coefficients for the problems encountered in confectionery sunflower production were analyzed by using the ordinary least squares method (OLS). In conclusion. as the age of the producers and the amount of chemical pesticides use increase, a yield increase in confectionery sunflower is achieved. whereas the yield decreases as the entrepreneurship problems of the family and the amount of agricultural supports increase. In order to the farms to achieve a higher level of yield and make a more conscious production, courses should be organized by universities and agricultural research institutes in areas including input use, farming techniques, and entrepreneurship. In addition, a small amount of premium support should be given to the confectionery sunflower as applied to oil sunflower.
