SUMMARY THE DEMAND FOR CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS IN TURKEY Agriculture can contribute to economic development in these three ways; by transfering the labor to other sectors; creating a market for industrialproducts; and iproving export potentials of the country. In order for the agriculture to improve the export potentials of the country, agricutural production must be sufficient enough to provide a surplus after meetİİ1g the domestİc needs. Productivity must be improved to increase theagricultural production. Undoubtably, chemical fertilizers take the most important plaçe among the inputs that can help-improve the proucdivity. The most important point to keep in mind in making plans about the use of cheırucal fetilizers is the knowladge about the factors that determine the demand for chemical fertilizers, and the directian and the scale of the effecets of these factors. In this study; these factors have been examined, near-future demand has been determined and probable consequences of political decisions <).nd the ways of realizing the objectives of such deecisions have been analyzed. This study cavers the period of 1960-1977. Data have been coJlected through the Government Agencies such as The state Planning Organization, State Institute of Statistİcs, Ministry of Agriculture and Agricultural SuppIy Organization of Turkey. In the study, simp1e regression analyses based on time series have been used. The usage of chemical fertilizet s in the previous year has been included iİı the equations to enhance the dynamism of the model in accordance with the Nedove's suggestions. The study constists of four parts which cover the demands for total, nitrogenous, phosphorous, and pothas chemical fertilizers. The dependent variable in the regression analyses is the demand for the different groups of chemical uertilizers indicated above. independent variables that vary according to different groups are shown in the foollowing table. 14 The relations with the highest F (the significance level of the equations as a wlıole) and R2 (The paıt of the variance in the depedent variable that is accounted for) vaiues with significant coeffidents at 20 %level have been used in the analyses. The levels of variance in the short-run elasticities of the variables in the relations are shown in the folIowing table. The results about the pothas fertilizers have not been found significant at 20 % leveL. The correction coefficients which are obtained by substracting the coefficients of oneyear lagged dependent variables from i have been found 0.75-0.79 for total, 0.65-0.90 for nitrogenous, 0.56-0.58 for phosphorous fertilizers. The most importent factors that affect the demand for chemical fertilizers are the price, income and the time. Projections have been made based on the assumption that the price and income would increase at an avarage rate for the period covered by this study. But priees have been incrased. at an extraordinary leve! at the begining of 1980. The effects of these price increases have been refined by steepwise regression method and the corrections have been made in the projections for future demands. According fo the corrected projections, in 1983 when the Forth Five Year Development Plan ends, the demand will be 5.3-5.5 million ton for nitogeneous fertilizers, 5.5-5.9 miJion tons fOf phosphorous fertilizers (10-11.5 'Tons total). The prices of chemica! fertilizers are under government control! in Turkey. Therefore it can be used as a tool for subsidies a transfer of resomees among sectors. In fact, in. 1980 the prices have been increased at a level as high as 769 % and 32 billion TL.will be transfered to industrial sector from agriculture. AgricuItural income should increase by 208 %in the short run and by 268 %in the Jong run so the level of demand in 1979 can be maintained. The fol1owing recomendations can be made abut the chemka! fertiliters: I) An income policy that wi1l compansate the negative affeets of high price increases should be fallowed. 2) A parity should be established between the prices of ehemical fertilizers and agricultural produets so as to encourage the use. of chemieal fertilizers. 3) A special fund should be set up to obtain chemical fertilizers the raw-materials, and' s<;> eliminate eost increases due to interests charged by the banks. 4) Credits for fertilizers and the distribution system must be made more efficient. 5) Small agricultural farms should be protected by providing asistance so that theycan use chemical fertiliters. . 6) Existing fertilizer plants should be oparated at full-capacity. IS 7) Vertical integraton should be established in the fertilizer ındust-ry and the production of domestic row-materials must be given a high priority.Keywords :
