Özet:

 In this study, determination of the areas suitable for walnut cultivation in Şebinkarahisar district, which is located within the borders of Kelkit Valley and has an important place in walnut production, by using geographical information systems GIS is aimed. For this purpose, elevation, slope, aspect, great soil groups, land use capability class and soil depth maps of Şebinkarahisar district of Giresun province were created using ArcGIS-ArcMap 10.3 program, and area calculations were also made. For the construction of the map of the suitability of the district for walnut cultivation, the elevation in a range of 750-1.700 m, the slope between 0-6 and 6-20, the northern and southern aspect groups north, northwest, northeast, east, south, southwest, southeast and west were considered as the characteristics of land. However, alluvial, brown, gray-brown podzolic, colluvial, brown forest and non calcic brown forest soils from great soil groups, class I, II, III and IV lands from land use capability classes and deep and medium deep soils were also used as evaluation criteria. In the next stage, land and soil characteristics maps were overlapped in ArcGIS-ArcMap 10.3 program by considering the evaluation criteria determined for walnut cultivation in the district and a map of suitability for walnut cultivation was created. As a result of the analyzes, the lands with a total area of 159,695 km2 in Şebinkarahisar district was found suitable for walnut planting. It is important to analyze pH, salt, lime, organic matter, plant nutrients and texture of the soils in the areas found suitable for walnut planting. It is considered that it will be useful to evaluate the areas close to water sources in new studies to be conducted for walnuts in the district.

 Bu çalışmada, Kelkit Vadisi sınırları içerisinde bulunan ve ceviz üretiminde önemli bir yere sahip olan Şebinkarahisar ilçesinde ceviz yetiştiriciliğine uygun alanların coğrafi bilgi sistemleri CBS kullanılarak belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, ArcGIS-ArcMap 10.3 programı kullanılarak Giresun ili Şebinkarahisar ilçesinin yükselti, eğim, bakı, büyük toprak grupları, arazi kullanım kabiliyet sınıfı ve toprak derinliği haritaları oluşturulmuş ve alan hesaplamaları yapılmıştır. İlçenin ceviz yetiştiriciliğine uygunluk haritasının yapımı için 750-1.700 m aralığında yükselti,  0-6 ve  6-20 arası eğim, kuzey bakı ve güney bakı grupları kuzey, kuzeybatı, kuzeydoğu, doğu, güney, güneybatı, güneydoğu ve batı arazi özellikleri olarak değerlendirmeye alınmıştır. Bununla beraber büyük toprak gruplarından alüvyal, kahverengi, gri kahverengi podzolik, kolüvyal, kahverengi orman ve kireçsiz kahverengi orman toprakları, arazi kullanım kabiliyet sınıflarından I., II., III. ve IV. sınıf araziler ile derin ve orta derin topraklar da değerlendirme kriteri olarak kullanılmıştır. Sonraki aşamada, ilçede ceviz yetiştiriciliği için belirlenen değerlendirme kriterleri göz önünde bulundurularak arazi ve toprak özellikleri haritaları ArcGIS-ArcMap 10.3 programında çakıştırılmış ve ceviz yetiştiriciliğine uygunluk haritası oluşturulmuştur. Yapılan analizlerin neticesinde Şebinkarahisar ilçesinde 159,695 km2 yüzölçümüne sahip alan ceviz dikimi için uygun bulunmuştur. Ceviz dikimine uygun bulunan alanlardaki toprakların pH, tuz, kireç, organik madde, bitki besin elementleri ve tekstür analizlerinin yapılması önemlidir. İlçede ceviz için yeni yapılacak çalışmalarda su kaynaklarına yakın alanların değerlendirilmesinin faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
