Turkey’s agriculture sector contribution fell from 17.5% in 1990 to 6.5% in 2022, as the country industrialized and shifted towards services. Economic liberalization in the 1990s and EU accession negotiations drove modernization in other sectors, reducing agriculture’s GDP share. The sharp decrease to 8.1% in 2006 further highlights the impact of this shift.
In recent years, agriculture’s share has hovered around 6%, underscoring its importance for exports and rural employment. The sector’s slight recovery to 6.7% in 2020 reflects heightened food security concerns during the pandemic.
