Abstract:

 Agriculture has an important place in the Turkish economy. It is known that Turkey is the leading country in foreign trade in some agricultural products. The main purpose of this study is to test whether Turkey is a competitive country in agricultural products. In the study, Revealed Comparative Advantages RCA index was used to measure Turkeys competition in agricultural products. The study period covers the years 2000-2021. According to RCA index calculations, it was found that Turkey has disadvantages in 19 of 46 agricultural products and advantages in 27 of 46 agricultural products. These 27 agricultural products are divided into three as weak, medium and strong advantage levels. Accordingly, Turkey was found to have a weak advantage in 5 agricultural products, medium advantage in 9 agricultural products and strong advantages in 13 agricultural products.

 Türk ekonomisi yapısal olarak incelendiğinde tarım sektörü nispeten önemli bir yere sahiptir. Türkiyenin bazı tarım ürünlerinde dış ticarette lider ülke olduğu da bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı Türkiyenin tarımsal ürünlerdeki rekabetçi ülke konumunda olup olmadığını sınamaktır. Çalışmada Türkiyenin tarımsal ürün rekabetini ölçmek için Açıklanmış Karşılaştırmalı Üstünlükler AKÜ endeksi kullanılmıştır. Çalışma dönemi 2000-2021 yıllarını kapsamaktadır. Açıklanmış Karşılaştırmalı Üstünlükler endeksi hesaplamalarına göre Türkiyenin 46 tarımsal ürün çeşidinden 19unda dezavantaja, 27sinde ise avantaja sahip olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu 27 tarımsal ürün ise kendi içerisinde zayıf, orta ve güçlü avantaj seviyesi olarak üçe ayrılmaktadır. Buna göre Türkiyenin 5 tarımsal üründe zayıf, 9 tarımsal üründe orta ve 13 tarımsal üründe güçlü avantaja sahip olduğu bulunmuştur.
