Özet:

 

This study was carried out to reveal the current situation regarding the socio-economic characteristics of cattle enterprises in İspir county of Erzurum province. For this purpose, a face-to-face survey was conducted with 394 cattle farm owners determined using the random sampling method. The data obtained were interpreted using frequency analysis. The enterprises were mostly small-scale family types that had less than 20 (69.3%) animals. The number of cattle in the enterprises was classified as less than 11, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, and more than 40 heads. Additionally, educational status of the owner of the enterprises were grouped as illiterate, literate, Primary School graduate, Secondary School graduate and High School graduate. The average age of the breeders was determined to be 55.2 years, with the majority between 50-70 years. The level of education of the breeders was low and the majority of them were primary school graduates (68.8%). More than half of the enterprise owners (58.4%) had more than 30 years of experience in cattle breeding. Apart from the owner, the number of people who cared for the animals was usually 2 people (43.7%) or 3 people (33.5%), and the person who cared for the animals was generally a family member. Only 27.9% of the enterprises were members of a union and 49.3% of the member enterprises preferred the Agricultural Credit Cooperative. As a result; the high average age of the population engaged in animal husbandry in the county makes it necessary to clear the way for young entrepreneurs with various supports and to prevent migration to the cities. In addition, carrying out various training and incentive activities to eliminate the disadvantages such as the low level of education of the breeders and membership of a union will make important contributions to the development of the Country’s livestock sector.
