Özet:

 

The agricultural sector is important for Turkey for many reasons such as high rate
 of rural population, a large share of employment in the agricultural sector, the
 sector's contribution to the formation of national income, and production capacity
 of sector. In recent years, although the share of agriculture sector in GDP and in
 foreign trade has declined, the share of it in employment is still protected. The
 agricultural sector is the backbone of the rural economy.
 Although there is a common view that agriculture is an important sector for an
 economy, there is no consensus about preference of agricultural growth in
 reducing poverty as the best remedy. Some researchers advocates that primarily
 this sector should bear of the importance in reducing poverty because the majority
 of the poor live in rural areas and are employed in the agricultural sector. Another
 view is that non-agricultural activities provide capital accumulation and thus more
 rapid development. Many studies in the literature, suggest that investments in the
 areas like rural infrastructure, health and education with agricultural development
 in developing countries are pro-poor.
 The objective of this study is to examine whether there is a relationship between
 agricultural growth and economic growth in the long-term and to analyze whether
 there is a relationship between agricultural credits as an agricultural support and
 agricultural growth in the long term. In addition, it is aimed to investigate if the
 agricultural credits is effective on the number of people employed in agriculture.
 Empirical findings of the study reveals that agricultural credits has a direct effect
 on agricultural income and employment, on the other hand it also shows that
 agricultural credits has indirect effect on the agricultural income due to the impact
 of agricultural credits on agricultural income and the impact of agricultural
 income on agricultural employment.
