Rural Immigration in Turkey and Agricultural Problems

Abstract

In developing countries like Turkey, it is feasible to argue that the reasons and consequences of rural immigration echo a significant portion of the common financial and social problems pertaining to that particular country.In Turkey the emergence of rural immigration corresponds to years following the 1950s particularly and in the aftermath of 1980s it has been elevated to the status of a critical national problem.It has been reported that the reason accounting for this status is predominantly related to the problems introduced by rural immigrants in the cities.Once analyzed from this perspective it is easy to claim that rural immigration is regarded as a problem mostly in the eyes of urban dwellers.The failure to treat the problem within the scope of rural population and agricultural sector in Turkey is likely to be a missing part in the relevant studies focusing on this particular issue.Driven by this motive, present study aims to analyze how and to what extent rural immigration can affect agricultural problems in Turkey.To draw a conclusion on this inquiry, relevant literature studies and statistical data have been screened.
