The translog cost function is applied to analyze input demand in Turkey sugar beet production from 1975 to 2003. Sugar and sugar beet production became an important issue after the sugar act changed in 2001. Although the political aspects of sugar beet production have been studied extensively, few studies are available on the quantitative aspects of sugar beet production in Turkey. The main goal of the study was to estimate input substitution and the elasticity of demand for the factors of sugar beet production. The computed factor demand elasticities show that the demand for the four factor inputs (labor, land, energy and fertilizer) considered in the analysis is inelastic with respect to changes in factor prices. Sugar beet production has a feature of traditional labor-intensive farming in Turkey. Current sugar and sugar beet policy may induce the farmers to adopt more efficient production and management techniques, enabling them to remain viable in a liberalized market setting. |
