Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyse the cost and profitability of agricultural farms engaged in pear production activities in the Korkuteli district of Antalya province, Türkiye, and to calculate marketing margins. In the study, primary data were obtained from 96 pear producers in the Korkuteli district by face-to-face survey method. The costs and profitability of pear producers were calculated using a single-product budget analysis method. According to the findings of the research, the cost of pear production per hectare of the producers was calculated as US$ 8824.75 on average for farms and US$ 9654.74 on average for the region. The share of variable costs in production was 68.29%, and the share of fixed costs was 31.71%. According to the regional average, the cost element with the highest share of production costs was pesticide costs. The gross production value per hectare was calculated as US$ 15539.34 at the interviewed pear farms, and US$ 14620.33 on the regional average. Relative profit was 1.76 on average for the interviewed farms and 1.51 on average for the region. Therefore, for every US$ 1 cost of pear production, a US$ 1.76 gross production value was obtained. It was determined that profit margins increased and unit costs decreased according to production scale. Pesticides, fertilisers and labour were important cost items in production costs. The highest kilogram cost was for farms in the second group, and the lowest kilogram cost was for farms in the fourth group. This was related to the sales channel preferences and yields of the farms.

土耳其梨园的成本和盈利能力:安塔利亚省 Korkuteli 地区的案例
本研究旨在分析土耳其安塔利亚省科尔库特利地区从事梨生产活动的农场的成本和盈利能力,并计算营销利润。研究采用面对面调查的方法,从科尔库特利地区的 96 位梨生产者那里获得了原始数据。采用单项产品预算分析方法计算了梨生产商的成本和利润率。研究结果显示,生产者每公顷的梨生产成本为:农场平均 8824.75 美元,地区平均 9654.74 美元。可变成本占生产成本的 68.29%,固定成本占 31.71%。根据地区平均水平,生产成本中占比最高的成本要素是农药成本。受访梨园的每公顷总产值为 15539.34 美元,地区平均值为 14620.33 美元。受访农场的平均相对利润为 1.76,地区平均为 1.51。因此,每 1 美元的梨生产成本就能带来 1.76 美元的总产值。据测定,生产规模越大,利润率越高,单位成本越低。农药、化肥和劳动力是生产成本中的重要成本项目。第二组农场的公斤成本最高,第四组农场的公斤成本最低。这与农场的销售渠道偏好和产量有关。
