Özet:

 This study was conducted to evaluate the impacts of financial support program supplied for pressurized irrigation methods implemented since 2006 on Ankara region of Türkiye. In this context, data regarding grants and subsidized credit supports provided by the state were obtained from relevant institutions. In order to evaluate how well pressurized irrigation supports serve their purpose, farmers opinions were taken in Ankara. For this purpose, 10 districts in Ankara where irrigated agriculture is intensively practiced were selected as pilot areas and a face-to-face survey was conducted with 250 farmers who use pressurized irrigation in this area. In this survey, it was tried to determine the effect of the support program on the widespread use of pressurized irrigation method, water saving, fertilizer use, product yield and farmer income, and farmers impressions about the program. In addition, for the 2006-2021 period, the numbers of pressurized irrigation systems and crop yield values were obtained from relevant institutions and evaluated together with the survey results. According to the research results, a total of 241 million TL was provided to 8603 farmers throughout Ankara province with the support program. During the 2006-2021 period, pressurized irrigation systems increased by 61.44 throughout Ankara province. Additionally, it was determined that 15 of the farmers receiving this support in the Ankara region switched to pressurized irrigation for the first time. During the said period, in the Ankara region, both official records and farmers opinions showed that there was an increase in the yield of some plants. Furthermore, the majority of farmers reported that significant water savings were achieved with the pressurized irrigation method. As a result, farmers want the pressurized irrigation support program to continue.

 Bu çalışma, ülkemizde 2006 yılında başlatılan ve halen devam eden basınçlı sulama yöntemleri mali destek programının Ankara ilindeki etkisini değerlendirmek için yürütülmüştür. Bu kapsamda, devletçe sağlanan hibe ve sübvansiyonlu kredi destekleri ile ilgili veriler ilgili kurumlardan temin edilmiştir. Basınçlı sulama desteklerinin amacına ne denli hizmet ettiğini değerlendirmek için Ankara ilinde çiftçi görüşleri alınmıştır. Bu amaçla, Ankarada sulu tarımın yoğun olarak yapıldığı 10 ilçe pilot alan olarak seçilmiş ve bu alanda basınçlı sulama yapan 250 çiftçi ile yüz yüze anket çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Anket çalışması ile destek uygulamasının basınçlı sulama yönteminin yaygınlaşmasına, su tasarrufuna, gübre kullanımına, ürün verimine ve çiftçi gelirine etkisi ile çiftçilerin programa ilişkin izlenimleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Ayrıca, uygulamanın başlangıcı ve günümüze kadarki döneme ilişkin basınçlı sulama sistemi sayıları ve ürün verim değerleri ilgili kurumlardan temin edilerek, anket sonuçları ile birlikte değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, basınçlı sulamaya sağlanan hibe ve düşük faizli kredi destekleri toplamı olarak Ankara ili genelinde 8603 çiftçiye yaklaşık 241 milyon TL kaynak sağlanmıştır. Programın uygulamada olduğu 2006-2021 döneminde, basınçlı sulama sistemleri Ankara ili genelinde 61.44 oranında artış göstermiştir. Ayrıca, Ankara bölgesinde bu desteği alan çiftçilerin 15inin ilk kez basınçlı sulamaya geçiş yaptığı belirlenmiştir. Söz konusu 2006-2021 döneminde, Ankara bölgesinde bazı ürünlerin verimlerinde artış olduğu hem çiftçi görüşleri ve hem de kurum verileri ile ortaya konarken, çiftçilerin büyük çoğunluğu basınçlı sulama yöntemi ile önemli ölçüde su tasarrufu sağlandığını bildirmişlerdir. Sonuç olarak, görüşü sorulan çiftçilerin hemen hemen tamamı basınçlı sulama destek programının devam etmesi gerektiğini belirtmişlerdir.
