Cherry production has a vital role regarding income source for producers and export sources for Turkey. In Turkey, several studies have done regarding the technical practices, and most of them were not considered the economic dimension of cherry production. This research aimed to determine the production inputs, costs and profitability of cherry production. This study aims to reveal the relationship between orchard size and profitability by using general economic calculations based on Afyonkarahisar, Denizli, Isparta, İzmir, Konya and Manisa provinces, in Turkey. It is assumed that this study may be able to close the existing gap regarding other studies in the literature to a certain extent. This study support that more prominent cherry orchards had higher profits compared to smaller. The relative profit varies between 2.2 to 3.0 in the farm size groups. In this study, it was found that relative profit is the highest in the bigger-scale orchards. The most crucial problem for producers is to achieve a profitable cherry selling price. This study found the output/input ratio is high. Orchard size and production cost have a significant influence on the economic success of a cherry orchard. Production cost has a negative influence on profitability with a low cherry yield. In other words, cherry production is profitable in the research region, but some recommendations can be made within the framework of research findings to get better.

土耳其樱桃种植经济结构评价

樱桃的生产对于土耳其的生产者收入来源和出口来源具有至关重要的作用。在土耳其，已经对技术实践进行了几项研究，其中大多数未被认为是樱桃生产的经济方面。这项研究旨在确定樱桃生产的生产投入，成本和盈利能力。这项研究旨在通过使用基于土耳其Afyonkarahisar，Denizli，Isparta，İzmir，Konya和Manisa省的一般经济计算来揭示果园规模与获利能力之间的关系。可以认为，这项研究在一定程度上可以弥补文献中其他研究的不足。这项研究支持，与较小的樱桃园相比，更著名的樱桃园具有更高的利润。相对利润在2.2到3之间变化。场大小组中为0。在这项研究中，发现相对利润在大型果园中最高。对生产者来说，最关键的问题是要实现有利可图的樱桃销售价格。这项研究发现输出/输入比率很高。果园的大小和生产成本对樱桃园的经济成功有重大影响。生产成本对樱桃的低收益率产生不利影响。换句话说，樱桃的生产在研究区域是有利可图的，但是可以在研究结果的框架内提出一些建议，以使樱桃更好。果园的大小和生产成本对樱桃园的经济成功有重大影响。生产成本对樱桃的低收益率产生不利影响。换句话说，樱桃的生产在研究区域是有利可图的，但是可以在研究结果的框架内提出一些建议，以使樱桃更好。果园的大小和生产成本对樱桃园的经济成功有重大影响。生产成本对樱桃的低收益率产生不利影响。换句话说，樱桃的生产在研究区域是有利可图的，但是可以在研究结果的框架内提出一些建议，以使樱桃更好。
