Özet
Purpose: The main purpose of this research is to present alternative solutions in this field by revealing the income and debt status of farmers with livestock income. Design/Methodology/Approach: The main material of the research is the survey study conducted with the producers in the research area. Apart from the survey data, the Farmer Registration System (ÇKS) data recorded by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry in the field of crop production was used. The records of the producers surveyed from the data of the National Milk Registration System were determined and included in the data set. Results were evaluated with descriptive statistics and Likert scale. Findings: Dairy farming has a significant share in the average income of farmers dealing with dairy farming. It is seen that farmers with low income level turn to dairy farming to increase their income. On the other hand, it has been determined that borrowing has increased in these enterprises and they are increasingly in loan relationship with banks. Originality/Value: Short-term loan products should be offered to businesses dealing with dairy farming. It is a necessity for farmers with low income or few animals to market their products through cooperatives. In addition, improving the financial literacy level of farmers is necessary for the healthy use of finance.
