dc.description.abstractTurkey is one of the most prominent tomato producing countries in the world. Tomat oes are in fourth place in the ranking of countries in terms of production area and in third place in terms of quantity of production. According to data from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations for 2020, Turkey provides 3.60% of the tomato production area worldwide and 7.07% of its production. In this study, it has been aimed to determine the resource use effectiveness of the factors applied in table tomato production in Canakkale province, which is one of the most significant tomato production centers. The data used in the research have been obtained by applying a face-to-face survey from 99 agricultural enterprises identified by the Stratified Sampling Method. Determination coefficient of the estimation equation of table tomato production created with the help of Cobb-Douglas type function is 0.912 and this value has been found significant at a 1% significance level. In the study, the sum of elasticity coefficients of production factors included in the estimation equation prepared for tomato production has been calculated as 0.96. The calculated value indicates that in the production of table tomatoes, there seems to be a reduced return to the scale. The presence of autocorrelation of the equation has been tested by the “Durbin Watson Test”. The Durbin Watson test statistic has been found as 1.914, and there seems no autocorrelation between the variables. When the production elasticity coefficients belonging to the arguments, which are included in the equation, have been examined; machine tensile strength and fuel consumption quantity variables have been found to be negative marked. In the estimation equation, seedling number of 1%, machine traction and labor factors have been found to be significant at the level of probability of production elasticity coefficients of 10%. When we consider the marginal efficiency coefficients of inputs used in table tomato production, it is seen that pure fertilizer (13.08), labor force (9.59) and number of seedlings (4.84) factors were found to be used below the economic optimum level, and the amount of use of specified inputs per unit area need to be increased. The marginal coefficient of effectiveness of the agricultural pest control drug used in tomato production is less than 1, and it has been recommended to reduce the use of this input. Other variables included in the estimation equation such as marginal efficiency coefficients related to machine traction power and diesel quantity are negatively marked and these inputs are used in the irrational region in tomato production. The study has revealed that production factors are not used effectively in the production of table tomatoes, which negatively affect the producer's income. © 2024, Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco.
