Abstract :Food security is a global problem. Unforeseen problems such as infrastructure problems in agricultural areas, income uncertainty in these areas, climate change, population growth and change in eating habits and reduction of agricultural land threaten food security.Sustainable agriculture is the whole of the production activities that human beings carry out to access the food they need in order to survive. In order to achieve this, a new food marketing management system is needed. The food marketing management system is part of the value chain. Value chain includes all pre-harvest and post-harvest activities in agricultural products. For success in the food marketing management system, all activities in the value chain must be evaluated together. In this study, the components that a new food marketing management system to be prepared in agriculture should contain.
