FARMERS' PERCEPTION REGARDING CLIMATE CHANGE IN SOUTHERN TURKEY: THE CASE OF MERSIN PROVINCE
Climate change is responsible for the negative effects in human life causing a decrease in agricultural products, biodiversity, soil fertility, and forest areas. In contrast, climate change increases plant diseases and pests, the cost of agricultural production and risk in food security. This study aims to determine whether climate change is a phenomenon via the analysis of the perceptions of the farmers in the Mersin province conducted over 251 questionnaires. Farmers primarily perceive climate change over production costs and the reduction in yield. Moreover, they are highly aware of its relation to natural events such as floods, drought, and storms. Nevertheless, inappropriate agricultural practices also lead to the negative consequences caused by climate change. In this respect, this study revealed that farmers with high cooperative partnerships and experience perceived climate change significantly.
期刊介绍:
New Medit is an applied economics journal, with a multidisciplinary approach, aimed at providing insights into the economic and the social transformations of agro-food sector, rural societies as well as local development and bioeconomy in the Mediterranean Basin.
Manuscripts submitted to NEW MEDIT generally should deal with wide-ranging topics that can be extended to other countries where organisational, production and market conditions and the related development policies may emerge at the corporate or regional level.
