PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 4 Sample frame Registers of MARA were used Direct Income Payment Sample selection First 3 provinces have highest production for each crop type selected Holdings grouped by size Probability sampling proportion to size – PPS 1. Introduction

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 5 Good practice agricultural holdings > 50 da arable land Bad practice agricultural holdings < 50 da arable land %20 non-response rate considered (total 315 agricultural holdings will be surveyed) Criterias in sample selection

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 6 For each crop type differrent questionnaire were designed I. Part Identification of the holdings II. Part Area harvested and seed treatment III. Part PPP application (commercial name, application date and method, crop stage and amount of ppp applied) Designing of the questionnaire

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 7 Face to face interview by Regional Offices of TURKSTAT Technical assistance of the technical staff of district offices of MARA were provided for identification of the ppp names Implementing period: Mid of October – End of October Data entry: Regional offices through web based program Implementation of the survey

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 8 Still continue... Tables produced until now (for all crops) 1.Number of holdings responding questionnaire 2.Reason for use ppp 3.Number of ppp application by months 4.Number of ppp application by crop stage 5.Effects of ppp usage Analysis of data

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 9 Tables produced only for potato 1.Basic area treated (ha) 2.Formulation area treated (ha) 3.Proportion of treated area (%) 4.Active substance (AS) applied (kg) 5.Proportion of AS applied (%) 6.Application rate of AS (kg/ha) PPP commercial names have been corrected for potato, wheat, tomato and green pepper Analysis of data

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 10 Problems encountered 1.Unavailibility of updated database for ppp and active substances 2.Identification of commercial products’ names by farmer (about 25% of the products name was not identified) 3.Identification of amount of ppp applied by farmers 4.Unavailability of ppp usage data by each parcel

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group 16 1.To prepare a model database for ppp harmonised with EUROSTAT PUS reporting format - commercial names - chemical class - active substances - crops and diseases that will be used - recommended rate 3. Future works and plans

PRIME MINISTRY REPUBLIC OF TURKEY TURKISH STATISTICAL INSTITUTE Agriculture and Environmental Statistics Department Agricultural Statistics Group Analysis of the results by size (>50 da and < 50 da for potato and wheat) 3. Preperation of the final report No pesticide use survey can be planned until 2011!!! 3. Future works and plans
