Abstract

This study focused on the effects of agricultural practices on water conservation in Turkey. Currently, about 75% of Turkey's available water resources are used for agricultural purposes. In this study, possible solutions for water shortage were analyzed in the light of the research and statistics studies conducted on agricultural irrigation in Turkey and the world.
