Özet

In Turkey, it was harvested the 167 kg confectionary sunflower per decare (da) by the confectionary sunflower at about 900000 da area in 2010. The leading provinces at confectionary sunflower production were Kahramanmaras, Ankara, Denizli, Kırsehir, Bursa, Kayseri, Kırıkkale, Aksaray, Konya and Erzurum. While Erzurum, however, in its production and harvested area were ordered as the 10th and 12th in Turkey, respectively. The production area of confectionary sunflower in Erzurum was ​​18123 da and the 95.3% of that was in Pasinler district. It, therefore, has the nature of the representation the main population. The aim of the study is to investigate the cost and revenues of the confectionery sunflower. The data to be obtained from the study will be provided from 86 farms through face-to-face survey technique at the eleven villages of Pasinler. According to the results of the study; the rate of the variable cost in the production cost of the confectionary sunflower was calculated as 73%, and the fertilizer, seed and irrigation water amount from variable inputs, and labor used for the maintenance was applied less than normal levels, and thus they led its yield to be much lower. Therefore, its production cost per kg was calculated as 2.0 TL, and its price was determined as 1.6 TL. As a result of this; since the production cost exceeded the total GVP, net benefit per da was found as -87.42 TL. According to the findings; the cost minimization could provide by being determined the technical and economic effectiveness levels related to the scarce sources usage of the farms. GVP could be increased by determining the reel buying prices for marketer. Then, the farms could gain the maximum income at some scale, and they could transfer them to the investments, and thus they may reach to the competitive farm structures.
