Özet
Öz This study aims to measure and identify the definable effects of agricultural policies and competitiveness of Turkish orange production system. In this context, orange production in Çukurova Region which has the capability of representing whole Turkey was examined. To demonstrate the net policy effects and competitiveness of the system, Policy Analysis Matrix was applied on orange production in Çukurova Region with the survey data based on 2009-2010 marketing period. To construct Policy Analysis Matrix, primarily the value of income, tradable inputs and domestic resources was identified in terms of social and private prices. Than to show the net effects of the policy decisions on orange production, efficiency coefficients such as domestic resource coefficient, nominal protection coefficient, effective protection coefficient and private cost coefficient were calculated. By the help of these ratios, information about market distortions, income transfers, comparative advantages and sector sensitivities were obtained via these ratios. From the results of the calculations, it was introduced that, private prices for orange production is negative and orange production is sustainable in terms of social profitability. In addition, according to the efficiency coefficients, the system was introduced as competitive.
