Abstract

Bu çalışma, sözleşmeli üretime katılımın besi sığırı üreticileri gelirleri üzerine etkisini araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, veriler 2016 yılında Adana ilinde 155 üreticiden yüz yüze yapılan anketlerden elde edilmiştir. Sözleşmeli üretimin üretici geliri üzerine etkisi Propensity Score Matching (Eğilim Puanı Eşleştirme) kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Sonuçlara göre, sözleşme yapan üreticilerin sözleşme yapmayanlara göre daha fazla varlığa ve çoğunlukla daha büyük bir sürüye sahip olduğunu saptanmıştır. Ayrıca, sözleşmeye katılım, üretici gelirinde %10.04'lük bir artış sağlamaktadır (p<0.01). Sözleşme yapan işletmelerin çoğunluğunun büyük ölçekli işletmeler olduğu göz önüne alındığında, gelirdeki bu artışın küçük işletme sahiplerini sözleşmeli üretime katılmaya teşvik etmek için yeterli olmadığı söylenebilir. Bu bağlamda, politika yapıcıların işletme ölçeğine uygun teknik yardım sağlamaya odaklanmaları, küçük üreticilerin sözleşmeye katılım oranını artırmak için işletme büyüklüğü ile ters orantılı bir sözleşme fiyatı belirlemeleri ve yayım hizmetlerini artırmaları gerekmektedir.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of contract farming participation on the income of beef cattle farmers. For this purpose, the data was collected from 155 farmers by face-to-face questionnaires in Adana province in 2016. The impact of contract farming on farmers’ income was identified using Propensity Score Matching. The results show that farmers who participate in the contract have more assets and mostly have a larger herd in comparison with non-contract. Further, contract participation entails a 10.04% increase in income (p<0.01). Given that most of the contract farms are large-scale, it can be said that this gain in income is not enough for encouraging smallholders to participate in contract farming. The evidence from this study suggests that policymakers should focus on providing appropriate technical assistance, giving price premiums and bonuses inversely proportional to farm-scale and improve extension services to enhance the rate of smallholder contract participation.
