Özet:

 In recent years, crises and shocks related pandemics, climate change, earthquakes, ecology and food have been increasing their impact on rural and urban spaces globally, including Turkey. Especially the question of how natural, ecological disasters and pandemic diseases will affect urban food systems, family producers and different groups such as seasonalmigrant workers has become one of the prominent topics in public discourse and academic research. In this study, the focus is on the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that began to impact Turkey from March 2020 on small producers and seasonal workers within the food systems. The data obtained from field research conducted in the Karasu and Kocaali Districts of Sakarya in September 2020, where the effects of the pandemic intensified and hazelnut harvesting began is used. The research reveals that the social isolation and other restrictive measures adopted during the pandemic management have created various vulnerabilities in terms of labor mobility in agriculture and product markets. The interdependence of production and labor processes in agriculture on the division of labor between different rural and urban spaces contributes to the emergence of such vulnerabilities.

 Son yıllarda Dünyada ve Türkiyede salgın, iklim değişikliği, deprem, ekoloji ve gıda alanında yaşanan kriz ve şoklar her geçen gün kır ve kent mekanları üzerindeki etkisini artırmaktadır. Özellikle doğal, ekolojik felaketler ve salgın hastalıkların kentsel gıda sistemlerini ve tarımdaki aile üreticilerini ve mevsimlikgöçmen işçiler gibi farklı grupları nasıl etkileyeceği sorusu kamuoyunun ve akademik araştırmaların önde gelen başlıklarından biri haline gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada 2020 Mart ayından itibaren Türkiyede etkili olmaya başlayan Covid 19 Salgınının gıda sistemleri içinde yer alan küçük üreticiler ve mevsimlik işçiler üzerindeki etkilerine odaklanılmıştır. Çalışmada salgının etkilerinin yoğunlaştığı ve fındık hasadının başladığı 2020 Eylül ayında Sakaryanın Karasu ve Kocaali İlçelerinde nitel yöntemle yapılan saha araştırmasından elde edilen veriler kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada salgın yönetimi esnasında başvurulan sosyal izolasyon ve diğer kısıtlama tedbirlerinin tarımda işgücü hareketliliği ve ürün piyasaları üzerinde çeşitli kırılganlıklar yarattığı saptanmıştır. Tarımdaki üretim ve emek süreçlerinin farklı kır ve kent mekanları arasındaki işbölümüne bağımlı hale gelmesi bu tip kırılganlıkların ortaya çıkmasında etkili olmaktadır.
