Özet:

 Cost and gross profit calculations of agricultural products are a comprehensive and difficult process. Many different parameters, such as soil cultivation, pruning, spraying, irrigation, storage, drying, harvesting, transportation, and marketing, need to be evaluated together. Currently, cost calculations of agricultural products are made with classical programs and simple mathematical methods. For this reason, the results vary depending on the person and organization making the evaluation. This creates some limitations, making cost planning, which is a dynamic process, unreliable. In the study, a rule-based expert system was developed for the cost and gross profit calculation of apricots. The expert system developed is called Apricot Information System APRIS. The developed expert system aims to provide more accurate solutions by adding the precision and speed of the computer to the calculation process. The main contribution of this study is the development of a complete decision support set covering all processes from tillage to marketing and the design of rule-based user-system interaction. The designed system found the apricot variable cost calculation to be 1126.36 TLda for 2020. This value largely overlaps with the values obtained from the field in the previous year. The developed expert system will be a platform that can be used in cost calculations of many agricultural products.

 Tarım ürünlerinin maliyet ve brüt kar hesaplamaları kapsamlı ve zor bir süreçtir. Toprağın işlenmesi, budama, ilaçlama, sulama, depolama, kurutma, hasat, nakliye ve pazarlama gibi birçok farklı parametrenin bir arada değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Günümüzde tarım ürünlerinin maliyet hesaplamaları klasik programlar ve basit matematiksel yöntemlerle yapılmaktadır. Bu nedenle sonuçlar değerlendirmeyi yapan kişi ve kuruluşa göre farklılık göstermektedir. Bu durum bazı sınırlamalar yaratarak dinamik bir süreç olan maliyet planlamasını güvenilmez hale getirir. Çalışmada kayısının maliyet ve brüt kâr hesaplaması için kural tabanlı bir uzman sistem geliştirilmiştir. Geliştirilen uzman sisteme Kayısı Bilgi Sistemi APRIS adı verilmektedir. Geliştirilen uzman sistem, hesaplama sürecine bilgisayarın hassasiyetini ve hızını da ekleyerek daha doğru çözümler sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın temel katkısı, toprak işlemeden pazarlamaya kadar tüm süreçleri kapsayan eksiksiz bir karar destek setinin geliştirilmesi ve kural tabanlı kullanıcı-sistem etkileşiminin tasarlanmasıdır. Tasarlanan sistemde kayısı maliyeti 2020 yılı için 126,36 TLda olarak bulunmuştur. Bu değer geçen yıl sahadan elde edilen değerlerle büyük ölçüde örtüşmektedir. Geliştirilen uzman sistem birçok tarım ürününün maliyet hesaplamalarında kullanılabilecek bir platform olacaktır.
