Abstract

There have been some actions in order to restructure the statistical system of Turkey in the context of harmonization with the Acquis Communautaire for a long time. Among them, the most important attempt was the enactment of the Statistics Law of Turkey (No. 5429) in November 2005. Under this law, the statistical system of the country went through a fundamental transformation, and agricultural statistics was restructured in the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat). In this study, firstly, brief information is given on the reorganized structure of TurkStat, then the new state of agricultural statistics and relevant actions are discussed in detail. Lastly, some agricultural statistics issues of the Hungarian Central Statistical Office (HCSO) and TurkStat are compared.
