Economic and efficiency analysis of beekeeping activity in Turkey: Case of Çanakkale Province

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the economic structure and
efficiencies of the beekeeping enterprises in Çanakkale Province. Beekeepers
were divided into three groups/strata according to number of hives: 
1-75 hives (first group), 76-150 hives (second group) and 151 hives and
above (third group). Survey sample size was determined as 87 based on
stratified random sampling method. The portion of fixed costs were 65.25% and
variable costs were 34.75% in averages of production costs of all enterprises. The
cost of honey production per kg changed between
2.04 US$ to 3.54 US$ among to enterprises. The average production cost of honey per kg was
2.92 US$. Average
yield amount per hive was 16.24 kg and production cost per hive was 53.32 US$.
Besides, average gross profit, net profit and relative profit were determined
as 77.53 US$, 42.74 US$ and 1.80, respectively. According to the average of the
enterprises, total technical efficiency (constant return to scale), pure
technical efficiency (variable return to scale), scale efficiency, allocative
efficiency and economic efficiency were found as 0.64, 0.89, 0.70, 0.74 and
0.66, respectively. It was determined that producer’s age and agricultural
activity apart from beekeeping affected the economic efficiency negatively and
land size, income per hive and honeycomb changing frequency affected the
economic efficiency positively. According to the results, it was concluded that
honey production was a profitable activity in Çanakkale Province and relative
profits and efficiencies of the enterprises in the third group were higher than
the other groups.
