Overview of Rural Development: The Case of Urganlı
Kırsal Kalkınmaya Bakış: Urganlı Örneği

Abstract

Today, it is frequently encountered with the emphasis that agriculture is a sector that should be given importance both globally and in Turkey. When the social change is examined historically, the developments in the industry after the Industrial Revolution, the establishment of factories that make mass production, and the fact that the cities began to gain their current structure caused agriculture to lose its importance in the traditional social structure. Because of o the changes in the social structure and the wrong policies applied, the value of agriculture has decreased. Rural development in Turkey has been shown as one of the most important development tools of countries since the first years of the republic. For this reason, governments have prepared various development plans. In order to support rural development in Turkey and to protect producers and consumers, in order to institutionalize rural development, “Agriculture and Rural Development Support Institution” was established and many support opportunities were created by the state. In this study, interviews will be held with 7 farmers who are engaged in agriculture in the Urganlı District of Turgutlu district of Manisa, with the help of semi-structured question paper, about how many farmers are aware of and implement the state supports for agriculture and the activities of the Agriculture and Rural Development Support Institution. With the data obtained, it will be tried to reveal the reflections of the development policies implemented in Turkey.
