Özet:

 In this study, it was aimed to examine the sustainable agriculture perceptions of paddy farmers using factor analysis. The main material of the study consisted of primary data obtained through a survey method from 89 paddy farmers operating in the İpsala district of Edirne province, located in the Thrace part of the Marmara Region of Türkiye. In order to determine the factors affecting the sustainable agriculture perceptions of paddy farmers, 60 propositions were presented to the farmers and the degree of agreement with each proposition was determined using a likert scale. As a result of the preliminary analysis, factor analysis was conducted with 30 propositions with factor loadings greater than 0.50. According to the results of the factor analysis, it has been determined that the eigenvalues for 9 factors are greater than 1 among the eigenvalues of 30 variables. For this reason, factor analysis results were examined taking into account 9 factors. These 9 factors explain  72.35 of the total variance. These factors and their total variance explanation ratios were determined as; Factor1 Environmental sensitivity factor 15.97, Factor2 Education and awareness factor 11.64, Factor3 Paddy production and women factor 8.47, Factor4 Seed preference and risk management factor 7.01, Factor5 Use of financial resources obtained for agricultural purposes in paddy production factor 6.60, Factor6 Cooperation and environmental improvement factor 6.44, Factor7 Environmental degradation and productivity factor 6.08, Factor8 Health factor 5.38, Factor9 Productivity factor 4.77, respectively. These results obtained from the study indicate that in order to ensure sustainability in paddy production; It provides important data for policy makers and decision makers regarding the promotion of environmentally friendly sustainable agricultural techniques by the government and the training of farmers on sustainable agricultural techniques.

 Bu çalışmada çeltik üreticilerinin sürdürülebilir tarım algılamalarının faktör analizi ile incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın ana materyalini, Türkiyenin Marmara Bölgesinin Trakya kısmında yer alan Edirne ilinin İpsala ilçesinde faaliyet gösteren 89 çeltik üreticisinden anket yöntemiyle elde edilen birincil veriler oluşturmuştur. Çeltik üreticilerinin sürdürülebilir tarım algılamalarını etkileyen faktörlerin belirlenmesi amacıyla, üreticilerin 60 önermeye katılma dereceleri likert ölçek kullanılarak saptanmıştır. Yapılan ön analiz sonucunda faktör yükü 0.50den büyük 30 önerme ile faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Faktör analizi sonuçlarına göre; 30 değişkene ait öz değerlerden Eigen value 9 faktöre ait öz değerin 1den büyük olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu nedenle faktör analizi sonuçları 9 faktör dikkate alınarak incelenmiştir. Bu 9 faktör toplam varyansın  72.35ni açıklamaktadır. Bu faktörler ve toplam varyansı açıklama oranları sırasıyla; Faktör1 Çevresel duyarlılık faktörü  15.97, Faktör2 Eğitim ve bilinç faktörü  11.64, Faktör3 Çeltik üretimi ve kadın faktörü  8.47, Faktör4 Tohum tercihi ve risk yönetim faktörü  7.01, Faktör5 Tarımsal amaçlı elde edilen finans kaynaklarının çeltik üretiminde kullanılması faktörü  6.60, Faktör6 İşbirliği ve çevresel iyileştirme faktörü  6.44, Faktör7 Çevresel bozulma ve verimlilik faktörü  6.08, Faktör8 Sağlık faktörü  5.38, Faktör9 Verimlilik faktörü  4.77 olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmadan elde edilen bu sonuçlar, çeltik üretiminde sürdürülebilirliğin sağlanabilmesi için; çevre dostu sürdürülebilir tarımsal tekniklerin devlet tarafından teşvik edilmesi ve çiftçilerin sürdürülebilir tarım teknikleri konusunda eğitilmesi hususunda, politika yapıcılar ve karar alıcılar için önemli veriler sunmaktadır.
