Due to small ruminant livestock farming being based on pasture, pastures are of great importance. On a 300-decare pasture area, the planting of 33,333 four-wing saltbush plants and the installation of an electric fence have been provided. With the pasture rehabilitation, an increase in profitability in small ruminant livestock farming is foreseen.

Hemp is one of the traditional cultivated plants of both our country and Yozgat, and its importance and usage have been increasingly spreading worldwide in recent years. Yozgat is one of the 19 provinces where its cultivation is permitted according to the hemp regulations. The fact that hemp is one of the traditional plants of our country and Yozgat, coupled with its growing importance and usage in recent years, necessitates revisiting this plant, increasing its production, and ensuring the supply of necessary raw materials for industries based on it.

Despite the Acıgöl district being a region with significant cattle farming and numerous cooperatives, these producer unions, as is common across the country, have largely functioned only as milk collection centers without advancing further. Through this project, a cooperative consciousness has been established, and in collaboration with the Karacaören Cooperative, regarded as the best in the region, this mindset has been broken. A milk processing facility with a daily capacity of 5 tons has been established to process the milk of local producers, thereby eliminating dependency on external resources.

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.
03 January 2022
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.

The project basin, which includes Güneysınır District of Konya Province, consists of marginal lands that cannot be irrigated and have no irrigation potential, making it a region experiencing continuous migration. Medicinal and aromatic plants are of great importance for utilizing unirrigated, arid, unproductive, and idle lands in rural areas. Through this project, the aims are to extract oil from the lavender produced by farmers in Güneysınır district, thereby improving quality, increasing income and welfare levels, and bringing marginal lands into agricultural use.

Through Training and Extension Activities aimed at field crop breeding and ensuring the efficient and sustainable use of soil and water resources in crop production, the first fully controlled breeding greenhouse in Konya province has been established at Selçuk University to strengthen educational infrastructure. The greenhouse is designed to create suitable conditions unaffected by seasonal variations, enabling multiple breeding cycles within a single year to shorten the breeding process. Additionally, the project aims to increase university students' interest in plant breeding and demonstrate modern breeding practices, agricultural techniques, and technologies.
