Özet:

 In recent times, concerns regarding crop and livestock have gained a new dimension as people are becoming increasingly sensitive to health and environmental issues. Conventional farming methods have become a topic of contention due to their potential to give rise to environmental and health-related problems. Consequently, a growing number of producers and consumers have started to place emphasis on organic crop and livestock practices. In this study, the provinces of Türkiye have been assessed and ranked in terms of their performance in organic crop, livestock, and beekeeping for the 2019-2022 period. This evaluation has been conducted utilizing TOPSIS which is a Multi-Criteria Decision Making MCDM method. The criteria considered for crop production encompassed number of farmers, total production area ha, and production quantity tons. For livestock, criteria such as number of farmers, number of animals, meat production tons, milk production tons, and number of eggs units were considered. Finally, organic beekeeping activities were assessed based on number of farmers, number of hives, and production quantity tons. In conclusion, Aydın province consistently ranked first in organic farming between 2019 and 2022. In organic livestock farming, Çanakkale province demonstrated stability by maintaining a position within the top three across all years. Finally, according to organic beekeeping data, Van province achieved the first place in 2019 and secured the second place in subsequent years, indicating a notable performance.

 Son yıllarda, insanların sağlık ve çevre sorunlarına karşı daha duyarlı hale gelmeleriyle tarım ve hayvancılık konularına ilişkin endişeler de yeni bir boyut kazanmıştır. Geleneksel tarım yöntemleri, sağlıkla ilgili sorunlara ve çevreyle ilgili olumsuzluklara yol açma potansiyelleri nedeniyle tartışmalı bir konu haline gelmiştir. Bu nedenle, organik tarım ve hayvancılık uygulamalarına önem veren üretici ve tüketici sayısı giderek artmaya başlamıştır. Bu çalışmada, Türkiyenin illeri, 20192dan 2022ye kadar olan dönemde organik tarım, hayvancılık ve arıcılık alanındaki performansları bakımından Çok Kriterli Karar Verme ÇKKV yöntemlerinden biri olan TOPSIS ile değerlendirilmiş ve sıralanmıştır. Organik tarım için kullanılan kriterler çiftçi sayısı, toplam üretim alanı hektar ve üretim miktarı tondır. Organik hayvancılık için ise çiftçi sayısı, hayvan sayısı, et üretimi ton, süt üretimi ton ve yumurta sayısı adet kriterleri göz önünde bulundurulmuştur. Son olarak, organik arıcılık faaliyetleri, çiftçi sayısı, kovan sayısı ve üretim miktarı ton üzerinden değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuçlara göre, organik tarımda Aydın ili 2019-2022 yılları arasında istikrarlı bir şekilde 1. sırada yer almıştır. Organik hayvancılıkta Çanakkale tüm yıllarda ilk 3 sırada yer alarak istikrar göstermiştir. Organik arıcılık verilerine göre ise Van ili, 2019 yılında 1., diğer yıllarda ise 2. sırada yer alarak iyi bir performans göstermiştir.
