Abstract:

 Although Kahramanmaraş province has a significant potential for greenhouse investments due to factors such as land structure, climate characteristics and widespread agricultural production activities, there are few scientific studies that examine the greenhouse production situation of the region in terms of agricultural economy and at micro level. This study aims to determine the sociodemographic characteristics and current structural characteristics of greenhouse enterprises in Kahramanmaraş province. The material of the study consists of data obtained by face-to-face questionnaire from 68 plastic greenhouse enterprises identified by complete census method in three districts, two of which are in the central district of Kahramanmaraş province. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. According to the results of the study, the average greenhouse land area of the enterprises was determined as 7.38 decares and it was determined that 70.05 of the producers produced tomatoes and 23.17 produced cucumbers. It was determined that all of the enterprises used plastic greenhouses, 50 of them grew more than one crop and 27.94 of them had agricultural insurance. In addition, the enterprises are mostly protected from frost damage by burning straw 58.82 and sprinkling 13.24. Most of the enterprises reported that they had soil analysis 80.88. The enterprises reported that they mostly benefited from bumblebee use support 83.82, input diesel-fertilizer support 80.88 and TARSİM greenhouse insurance support 64.71. It is thought that this research will be an important source of data and information to effectively mobilize the greenhouse potential in the region.

 Kahramanmaraş ili, bölgenin arazi yapısı, iklim özellikleri ve yaygın tarımsal üretim faaliyetleri gibi faktörler nedeniyle seracılık yatırımları konusunda önemli bir potansiyele sahip olmasına karşın, bölgenin örtüaltı üretim durumunu tarım ekonomisi açısından ve mikro düzeyde inceleyen az sayıda bilimsel çalışma vardır. Bu araştırma, Kahramanmaraş ilinde örtüaltı işletmelerinin sosyo-demografik özelliklerini ve mevcut yapısal özelliklerini tespit etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmanın materyalini, Kahramanmaraş ilinde ikisi merkez ilçe olmak üzere üç ilçede tam sayım yöntemiyle tespit edilen 68 plastik sera işletmesinden yüz yüze anket ile elde edilen veriler oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistiklerden yararlanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, işletmelerin ortalama sera arazi varlığı 7.38 dekar olarak belirlenmiş olup, üreticilerin  70.05inin domates,  23.17sinin ise salatalık ürettiği saptanmıştır. İşletmelerin tamamının plastik sera kullandığı,  50sinin birden fazla ürün yetiştirdiği,  27.94ünün tarım sigortası yaptırdığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca işletmeler en çok saman yakarak  58.82 ve yağmurlama yaparak  13.24 don zararından korunmaktadırlar. İşletmelerin büyük bir kısmı toprak analizi yaptırdığını  80.88 bildirmişlerdir. İşletmeler en çok bombus arısı kullanım desteği  83.82, girdi mazot-gübre desteği  80.88 ve Tarım Sigortaları Havuzu TARSİM sera sigortası desteğinden  64.71 yararlandıklarını bildirmişlerdir. Bu araştırmanın bölgedeki seracılık potansiyelini etkin bir şekilde harekete geçirmek için önemli bir veri ve bilgi kaynağı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
