Özet
In this study, an investigation is conducted on the firm concentration ratios of dairy industry in raw milk marketing, which is an important product due to its place in both nutrition and total rural production in Turkey. For this purpose, a field study is conducted in Burdur province, which has shown considerable improvements in milk production of Turkey in recent years. During this study, the quantities of the milk purchased by 19 dairy industry procuring raw milk from 175 cooperatives (72 irrigation cooperatives, 97 agricultural development cooperatives and 6 marketing cooperatives) has been examined. Based upon the data collected, CR4, CR8, CCI, H and Entropy index values, which quantitatively determine the firm concentrations, have been calculated on the basis of the obtained data. During the study these values have been determined as 78.54%; 92.11%; 0.6033; 0.2193 and 0.2341 respectively. As a result of the investigation, it has been determined that the company concentration level in raw milk marketing in Burdur province is high, in other words, the characteristics of the existing structure is considerably close to those of an oligopson market. It is noticed that, measures including structural change must be taken for development of dairy cattle farming, for sustainability of the production, for integration of production industry and for creation of competitive environment in the sector and unless this is realized, it shall not be possible to find permanent and rational solutions to the problems of the sector.
