Özet

This research was conducted via surveys applied to agricultural enterprises of Edirne, Kırklareli, Tekirdağ provinces in order to determine the efficiency of the agricultural enterprises of the Thrace Region. The enterprises were ranked with respect to their sizes and divided into three strata, including 1-50, 51-200, and 201 decares and above. In accordance with this stratified random sampling method, number of the surveyed enterprises was determined as 169. The average size of the surveyed enterprises was found to be 117.49 decares. The active capital based on the average of enterprises was determined as 621052.29 TL. Vegetative gross output value, animal gross output value, variable costs and fixed costs were found as 32929.42 TL, 23895.80 TL, 30288.35 TL and 20331.77 TL, respectively. Coefficients of technical efficiency, allocative efficiency and economic efficiency were determined and they were found to be higher in the third group enterprises than those for the other groups. Based on the average of the enterprises, technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency, scale efficiency, allocative efficiency and economic efficiency were computed as 0.66, 0.84, 0.78, 0.89, and 0.75 respectively. Based on the results of the Tobit modeling, the education period of the farmers, the size of the family, income from nonagricultural activities, the number of agricultural organizations which they join were determined to have a negative effect on the economic efficiency whereas the land size, the presence of livestock and irrigation amount were evaluated to have a positive effect. © 2018, Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco.
