“Türkiye has written a success story in agriculture”

Speaking at the Ziraat Bank Agricultural Ecosystem Meeting, President Erdoğan said: “Türkiye has written a success story in the last 21 years in, first and foremost, agriculture, husbandry and aquaculture.”

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan delivered a speech at the Ziraat Bank Agricultural Ecosystem Meeting held with the theme of “Sustainable Agriculture and Branding in Agriculture” at the Haliç Congress Center in Istanbul.

Recalling that he met with the heads of the chambers of agriculture and producer unions in Ankara on May 14, World Farmers' Day, President Erdoğan said they presented a comparative picture of Türkiye’s progress in agriculture in the last 21 years.

“Anyone with a conscience accepts the fact that Türkiye has written a success story in the last 21 years in, first and foremost, agriculture, husbandry and aquaculture,” President Erdoğan said.

Emphasizing that the recent fluctuations in red and white meat prices cannot be ignored, President Erdoğan said: “We cannot turn a deaf ear to the complaints raised in different areas, from the increase in fertilizer prices to the lack of temporary and permanent workers. Along with our achievements, we are also aware of the areas that still produce problems.”

“We aim to increase the number of our accomplishments and to remedy our shortcomings. We work to develop solutions to our problems with common sense,” President Erdoğan said.

“We are open to everyone's ideas, contributions, and constructive criticism to improve Türkiye’s agricultural ecosystem,” President Erdoğan underlined.
