Özet:

 The article examines the development dynamics of sericulture and cocoon production sectors in the northwestern region of Azerbaijan Sheki-Zagatala economic-geographical region during the period 20182023, the application of a cluster-based production model, and the impact of these sectors on employment. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the cluster approach to enhance the economic potential of sericulture, one of the regions traditional economic activities, and to investigate changes in the labor market within this field. The research employs both qualitative and quantitative analyses based on official statistical data, regional development programs, and reports from local executive authorities, identifying the influence of the silk industry on the regional labor market. A SWOT analysis was conducted to assess the development opportunities and existing challenges of these sectors. Considering the sericulture potential of the region, clusters and subclusters were identified based on production, labor market, and other functional characteristics. For the first time, a monomorphic logistic model was developed and applied to organize clustering in sericulture and cocoon production, demonstrating its effectiveness as a tool for optimizing the regional production chain.

 Makalede, Azerbaycanın kuzeybatı kesiminde yer alan Şeki-Zakatala ekonomik-coğrafi bölgesinde, 20182023 yılları arasında ipekçilik ve koza üretimi sektörlerinin gelişim dinamikleri, küme klaster temelli üretim modelinin uygulanması ve bu sektörlerin istihdama etkisi incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın amacı, bölgenin geleneksel ekonomik faaliyetlerinden biri olan ipekçiliğin ekonomik potansiyelini artırmak amacıyla küme yaklaşımının etkinliğini değerlendirmek ve bu alandaki iş gücü piyasasındaki değişimleri analiz etmektir. Çalışmada, resmi istatistik veriler, bölgesel kalkınma programları ve yerel yönetim raporları temel alınarak nitel ve nicel analizler yapılmış; ipek endüstrisinin bölgesel iş gücü piyasası üzerindeki etkisi ortaya konmuştur. Söz konusu alanların gelişim olanaklarını ve mevcut zorluklarını değerlendirmek amacıyla SWOT analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bölgenin ipekçilik potansiyeli göz önünde bulundurularak, üretim, iş gücü piyasası ve diğer işlevsel özelliklere göre kümeler ve alt kümeler tanımlanmıştır. İpekçilik ve koza üretimi alanında kümeleşmenin sağlanmasına yönelik olarak ilk kez geliştirilen monomorf lojistik model uygulanmış ve bu modelin bölgesel üretim zincirinin optimize edilmesinde etkili bir araç olduğu gösterilmiştir.
