Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye ile Avrupa Birliği ülkeleri arasında arıcılık açısından benzerlikleri ve farklılıkları belirlemek ve benzer ülkeleri sınıflandırmaktır. Çalışmanın ana materyalini Avrupa Birliği ülkeleri ve Türkiye'nin arıcı sayısı, üretilen bal miktarı ve dış ticaret dengesi değerleri oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Türkiye ile Avrupa Birliği ülkeleri arasında arıcılık konusundaki benzerlik ve farklılıkları ortaya koymak için çok boyutlu ölçekleme analizi ve kümeleme analizinden yararlanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçları İspanya ve Romanya'nın en benzer ülkeler olduğunu, Türkiye ve Almanya'nın ise arıcılık açısından diğer Avrupa Birliği ülkelerinden belirgin şekilde farklı olduğunu göstermektedir. Türkiye'yi diğer ülkelerden ayıran temel özellik üretilen bal miktarıdır. Almanya'yı diğer ülkelerden ayıran temel özellikler ise arıcı sayısı ve yüksek ticaret açığı olmuştur. Türkiye'nin arıcılıkta Avrupa Birliği ülkeleriyle etkin bir şekilde rekabet edebilmesi için küçük, markalı ambalajlarda bal ihracatını teşvik eden politikalara öncelik vermesi gerekmektedir.

ANALYSIS OF SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES IN BEEKEEPING BETWEEN TÜRKİYE AND EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES

Abstract

This study aims to determine the similarities and differences between Türkiye and European Union countries in terms of beekeeping and classify similar countries. The main materials of the study consist of the number of beekeepers, the amount of honey produced, and the trade balance values of European Union countries and Türkiye. In this study, multidimensional scaling analysis and cluster analysis were conducted to reveal the similarities and differences between Türkiye and European Union countries regarding beekeeping. The analysis results indicate that Spain and Romania are the most similar countries and Türkiye and Germany significantly differ from other European Union countries regarding beekeeping. Specifically, Türkiye was differentiated from other countries by its high honey production amount. The key characteristics that differentiated Germany from other countries were the number of beekeepers and a high trade deficit. In order to compete effectively with European Union countries in beekeeping, Türkiye should prioritize policies that encourage the export of honey in small, branded packaging.
