Nevşehir province ranks first in Turkey in the production of pumpkin seeds for snacking. The project aims to prevent producers from being subjected to prices determined by merchants and to enable them to process and sort their products through their local chamber of agriculture, thereby selling them at their true value. Within this scope, a product processing facility with a capacity of 5 tons per hour has been established.

Through the portable sheepfold projects, the objectives are to improve shelter conditions and thereby enhance animal welfare, to prevent productivity losses in animal husbandry, to produce healthy and high-quality animal products, to prevent the establishment of permanent shelters in pastures, to clear irregular structures within pastures, and to develop alternative methods that will facilitate the reclamation of pasturelands.

Through this project, it is aimed to demonstrate that more economical and efficient potato production can be achieved using our domestic and national potato varieties, to increase awareness regarding the use of domestic and national seeds, and to reduce foreign dependency in potato seed supply. In addition to providing cultivation training, the project is also targeted to contribute to the widespread adoption of our domestic and national varieties.

The aim of the projects is to develop and expand modern viticulture using high-wire training systems in areas with a viticulture culture. Through the project, diseases and pests in the vineyards have been reduced, yields have increased, and farmers’ incomes have improved.

The greenhouse projects aim to achieve high yield per unit area, enable value-added production on small and fragmented lands, allow early and late-season production, reduce the carbon footprint, and promote the concept of local production for local consumption.

In line with the concept of sustainable rural development, a 3,000 m² seedling production greenhouse has been established in the region. The project aims to enhance the production capacity of producer unions and family farms, increase the employability of the rural workforce, improve quality of life, combat poverty, and elevate the welfare level of rural communities by providing regular and sufficient income opportunities. Additionally, it seeks to sustain the population in rural areas by meeting the seedling needs of greenhouse producers.
