Kadınlar bir yandan günlük rutin ev işleri yaparken, diğer taraftan el sanatları ve tarımsal üretim gibi gelir getirici işler yaparak aile bütçesine katkı sağlamaktadır ancak aile içinde ve üretimle ilgili alınan kararlara etkin olarak katılamamaktadır. Araştırma Tekirdağ ili merkeze bağlı 55 köyde yaşayan 255 kadını kapsamaktadır. Araştırma, çeşitli yazılı kaynaklardan ve alandan toplanan özgün verilerden yararlanılarak hazırlanmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan kırsal kadınlara anket uygulanarak, öğrenim durumu, aile yapısı, gelir kaynaklarının neler olduğu, sosyal güvence durumları, aile içi kararlara katılımları gibi konular incelenmiştir. Araştırmada elde edilen sonuçlara göre, ankete katılan kadınların %60.8’i ilkokul mezunudur. Kadınlar, bitkisel üretimde çapalama ve ekim-dikim; hayvansal üretimde süt sağımı gibi üretimin her aşamasına katılmaktadır. Kadınlar en çok ailede giyim eşyalarının satın alınmasına (%40.4) karar vermektedir. Eşlerin birlikte karar verdiği konuların başında ise sahip olunmak istenen çocuk sayısı (%82.3) gelmektedir. Araştırmada elde edilen sonuçlarda aile içinde alınan ekonomik ve sosyal kararlarda etkili olan kişi genelde aile reisi olmaktadır. Araştırmada kırsal alanda yaşayan kadınların kooperatiflerden beklentilerini konumlandırmak üzere yapılan çok boyutlu ölçekleme (ÇBÖ) analizinden yararlanılmıştır.

Araştırmaya ait orijinal veriler Edirne Bölgesinde dokuz ilçede 380 tarımsal işletme sahibi ile yüz yüze görüşülerek anket çalışması yoluyla elde edilen bilgilerden oluşturulmuştur. Saha araştırmasında elde edilen verilerin analizinde Lojistik Regresyon yönteminden yararlanılmıştır. Tüm saha araştırmalarından elde edilen bulgulara ve izlenimlere göre tarımın devlet tarafından yeterli miktarda desteklenmediği ve bunun sonucu olarak tarımsal işletme sahiplerinin %64,2'sinin organize olmuş tarımsal kredi kaynaklarından kredi kullanarak tarımsal işletmelerini finanse ettikleri tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular ışığında tarımsal işletme sahiplerinin tasarruflarının artması tarımsal kredi kullanımlarını düşürürken, tarımsal giderlerinin artması ve tarımsal kuruluşlara üye olmaları ise organize olmuş tarımsal kredi kaynaklarından kredi kullanım oranlarını arttırmaktadır. Bu sonuçlardan hareketle, Türkiye'de tarımın devlet tarafından daha fazla desteklenmesi gerektiği ortaya çıkmaktadır. Ayrıca tarımsal işletme sahiplerinin tarımsal kredi kullanarak sağladıkları finansmanlarının da mutlaka azaltılması öngörülmektedir. Tarımsal işletmelerin tarımsal girdilerinin daha fazla desteklenmesi ve tasarruflarının arttırılması için üretim planlarının oluşturulması ve gelirlerinin arttırılması gerekmektedir. Tarımsal girdilerin üretimdeki maliyetlerinin düşürülmesi için ise işletmeler arasında örgütlenmeyi arttırarak öz sermayelerinin güçlendirilmesi sağlanmalıdır.Öğe The Consumers' Functional Food Trend: Market Orientation, Market Opportunities(Future Acad, 2019) Oraman, YaseminFunctional foods have become the corner stone of food innovation in the past few years. Functional foods presumably enable the consumer to lead a healthier life without changing eating habits. In this paper, it is aimed to analyse the approaches of different consumers, living in the city of Istanbul, towards a variety of functional foods, the socio - economic status of the families and their approaches to functional foods. Applying a face to face survey to 611 people living in Istanbul, their attitudes to functional foods were examined. Data obtained from those 611 questionnaires were analysed through the SPSS statistical packet program. Besides, multiple regression analysis is conducted to determine the impact of independent variables (motivators to consumers' healthy lifestyle, barriers to consumers' healthy lifestyle, attitude towards willingness to consume functional foods has a positive impact on functional food consumption, willingness to consume functional foods) on the dependent variable (functional food consumption). T-test and ANOVA is conducted to define if there is a significant difference between functional food consumption of consumers according to demographic variables. According to the results of the research, 73, 2 % of the consumers noted that they have had functional foods at least once before. Although the enhanced health benefits attracted consumers' attention, concerns on the artificial ingredients and effectiveness of the health benefits have formed negative attitudes towards functional products. Thus, understanding factors that influence consumers' perceptions and acceptances of functional food is essential for food industry in their new product development strategies making.
