Abstract

Turkey has some flaws and challenges in the functioning of agricultural products markets. The receipt warehouse system, which is used for various agricultural products and in many countries around the world is important in terms of proper functioning of agricultural products markets. Therefore, in recent years, creating a legal infrastructure for a receipt warehouse system has gathered speed in Turkey. The study is focused on the functioning of the receipt warehouse system which has existed in developed countries for a long time and recently put into practice in Turkey. The aim of the study is to evaluate the system in terms of Turkish agricultural products, discuss the potential advantages of the warehouse receipt system for farmers, agro-industry, traders, exporters, and more and the problems encountered in the improvement of the system. This review was performed based on domestic and international literature. According to the results of evaluation, primary advantages of the system are availability of high-quality products at desired times in sufficient quantities, price stability, decreasing the cost of stocking and offering farmers eligible loans and credit. In spite of its advantages, it seems that the development of the warehouse receipt system in agricultural markets will not be easy in Turkey because of small-scale enterprises in agriculture sector, the absence of a specialized commodity exchange and the high cost of establishing a licensed warehouse.

TÜRKİYE’DE TARIM VE GIDA ÜRÜNLERİ İÇİN LİSANSLI DEPOCULUK SİSTEMİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Year 2014, Volume: 29 Issue: 3, 240 - 247, 02.11.2014

Abstract

Türkiye’de tarım ve gıda ürünleri piyasalarının işleyişinde bir takım aksaklıklar ve sorunlar ortaya çıkabilmektedir. Başta gelişmiş ülkeler olmak üzere dünyada birçok ülkede ve üründe yaygın bir şekilde uygulanan lisanslı depoculuk sistemi, Türkiye’de belirli tarım ve gıda ürünleri piyasalarının düzgün bir biçimde işlemesi açısından önemli görülmektedir. Nitekim Türkiye’de de lisanslı depoculuk sisteminin yasal altyapısının hazırlanması çalışmaları son yıllarda hızlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, lisanslı depoculuk sisteminin Türk tarım ve gıda ürünleri açısından genel bir değerlendirmesinin yapılması amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışmada, lisanslı depoculuk sisteminde yer alan ana unsurların sistemden sağlayacağı avantajlar ve lisanslı depoculuğun gelişmesinin önünde duran sorunlar için alınması gereken önlemler tartışılmıştır. Bu çalışma yerli ve uluslararası literatürden yararlanılarak hazırlanmıştır. Yapılan değerlendirmeye göre, kaliteli ürünün istenilen zamanda ve miktarda elde edilmesi, fiyat istikrarı sağlaması, stok maliyetinin azaltılması ve üreticilere uygun kredi olanaklarının sağlanması lisanslı depoculuk sisteminin başlıca avantajlarıdır. Bu avantajlarına rağmen, Türkiye’de lisanslı depoculuk sisteminin gelişimi, tarımsal işletmelerin küçük ölçekli olması, ürün ihtisas borsalarının mevcut olmayışı ve lisanslı depo kurma maliyetlerinin çok yüksek olması gibi nedenlerle kolay görülmemektedir.
