Abstract :In this study, the differences between the basic characteristics and attitudes of the producers who had soil analysis and those who did not, were determined in Edirne and Tekirdağ provinces, and a comparative analysis was done in terms of fertilization and soil analysis applications. In each province, 3 laboratories which had the most sample acceptance number for soil analysis were selected. In 2015, a total of 200 producers were interviewed, including 60 producers from 20 producers who applied to the laboratories and benefited from soil analysis subsidies, and 40 producers with similar characteristics who did not benefit from soil analysis subsidies in the regions where the same laboratories are located. The differences between the socio-economic characteristics of the producers were determined by non-linear canonical correlation analysis. It was seen that the education level of the producers, the total size of the land they cultivated, having non-agricultural income and having agricultural insurance were the most important variables in the differences between the producers who had soil analysis and those who did not.Keywords : Gübreleme, toprak analizi, destekleme
