    Factors affecting credit use for fruit farms: the case of Bursa
    (Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2020-10-20) Erdal, Burcu; Tipi, Tolga; Ziraat Fakültesi; Tarım Ekonomisi Bölümü
    One of the basic principles of economic development is to increase agricultural production. To increase agricultural production, technological and biological innovations must be implemented by the farmers. However, the capital accumulation required for the implementation of these innovations is not sufficient, especially in small family farms. To provide production inputs and to apply new production techniques and methods, the farmers find the necessary capital by using agricultural credit. Therefore, agricultural financing is critical for the development and growth of the agricultural sector. This study aims to determine the credit usage levels and factors affecting credit usage of fruit growing farms in the province of Bursa, Turkey. For this purpose, a face-to-face survey was conducted with 57 fruit growing farms in the central districts of the province of Bursa. According to the results of the analysis of the data obtained from the surveys, age of the household head, farmers’ education level, the maturity of credit and the number of types of cultivated crops were determined to be effective on the credit usage level of fruit growing farms.

    Granger causality relationship between agricultural gross national product and agricultural exports:The Turkey case
    (Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2020-09-15) Erdal, Burcu; Vural, Hasan; Ziraat Fakültesi; Tarım Ekonomisi Bölümü
    This study aims to determine the long-term relationship between the agricultural gross national product and agricultural export in Turkey between the years 1998-2017. In the determination of the relationship, gross domestic product and the annual agricultural export data (1998-2017) were used. Initially, the unit root test was performed to identify long-term analysis. ADF method was used for the unit root test. In the long-term cointegration determination between the variables, Johansen cointegration analysis was performed. The presence of cointegration between the variables was determined in the cointegration test. The error correction model (VECM) was estimated based on the existence of a long-term relationship. Granger causality test was performed to determine the direction of the relationship between the variables. The causality analysis results reveal a bidirectional relationship between agricultural gross national product and agricultural exports in Turkey. The change in agricultural gross national product will also affect agricultural exports in an additional direction or the opposite. The growing importance of agriculture and supporting it in the economy will have a positive impact on the increase in national income.
