Özet
Agricultural production is subsidized at different levels depending on the country's development status. The budget that was allocated for agricultural subsidies in Turkey in 2020 was around 22 billion TL (Turkish Lira) which was equal to 3.14 billion USD. In this study, the contribution of agricultural subsidies to product income and gross profit value was examined specifically on cotton as crop production and dairy cattle as animal production. According to the research results, agricultural subsidies increased production value by 30.7% in cotton and 4% in milk income. The increased rates also significantly increased the gross profit values of the products. The results also indicate that enterprises sustain their existonce with the income from subsidies, and that the income from production barely covers operating costs. It is necessary to allocate a sufficient budget for agricultural subsidies in order to secure Turkey's agricultural sustainability, improve producers' income, and provide affordable food supplies for consumers by decreasing production costs.
