This study was conducted in the Mersin province, where greenhouse agriculture is commonly practiced in Turkey. In the study, organic, conventional, and soilless cropping systems were compared economically. The study was conducted by producing tomatoes in greenhouses over a three year period between 2012 and 2014. The best result among the three production systems in terms of production costs and net profit were obtained from the organic cropping system. The average yield in a unit area (ton 1000 m(-2)) was 22.37 in soilless culture, 19.28 in organic, and 18.55 in the conventional cropping system. Total production cost for a unit area was 13,508.09 US$ in organic growth, 12,694.34 US$ in soilless culture, and 10,744.62 US$ in the conventional cropping system. Net profit for a unit area was 7,314.31 US$ in organic production, 3,278.87 US$ in soilless culture, and 2,608.98 US$ in the conventional cropping system. Results showed that it is possible to grow vegetables economically with alternative production systems. It requires extending and ensuring sustainability of environmentally friendly production systems. Therefore, farmer training about production techniques, and subsidies alternative production systems are important.
