With this research, individual and operational characteristics of pepper producers in Sanliurfa province were examined and the factors that are effective in adopting good agricultural practices (GAP) were tried to be determined. In this research, the data obtained by conducting face-to-face questionnaires were analyzed with 90 producers producing Şanlıurfa pepper in Şanlıurfa province. According to the results of the analysis, it was determined that a significant number of pepper-producing operators were graduates of primary schools (37.78%) and secondary schools (24.44%). In this research, it was found that they produced vegetables in 35.39% of the farm land. It was determined that all pepper producers had not done GAP and 44.45% were not even aware of GAP. Among the reasons manufacturers do not make GAP is the first place to not know the application criteria (25.50%). Manufacturers lack information due to insufficient publication studies related to GAP. GAP is supported by the state in the cultivation of fresh fruits and vegetables under cover and greenhouses. Other important reasons for not implementing it were lack of infrastructure (25.20%) and insufficient state support (24.60%). Şanlıurfa pepper producers need the necessary infrastructure to produce within the scope of GAP. In this research, the relations between agricultural activities, environmental health and human health are sufficiently aware. Şanlıurfa pepper will be produced within the scope of GAP as a geographically marked product and its reliability will increase. The export potential of isot, obtained from the pepper produced, will also increase.
