Abstract

Agricultural industry is an important part of both foreign trade and economic development for Turkey. Today, Turkey is both producer and exporter of especially many agricultural products in the world conjuncture. In this research, we queried whether Turkish agricultural industry has comparative advantage according to 24 chapters. We used Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Revealed Symmetric Comparative Advantage (RSCA), Trade Equilibrium Index (TEI) and created product map of Turkish agricultural sector in our analysis. Data used in this research are provided from International Trade Centre (INTRADE) and belong to period between 2001and 2017. According to results of RCA and RSCA calculated in this research, Turkey which has great agricultural potential has a comparative advantage in 12 chapters and a competitive power in 11 chapters. Additionally, Turkey is a country which is net exporter in 18 chapters according to TEI values. Agricultural sector product map reveals that Turkey has occupied an important place in 9 of 24 chapters export since 2001. Shortly, the comparative advantage ratio of Turkey in Agricultural sector is 50%, competitive power ratio is 46% and net export power is 75% due to chapter numbers.
