    Küzeci, Usgur; Dagdemir, Vedat; Ertek, Nur

    The study examined the producer-consumer prices and marketing structure of the chickpeas in Turkey, with a focus on the production-consumption, foreign trade, price fluctuations and marketing between the years 2003-2017. Despite the reduction in acreage and production rates in Turkey, an increase was observed in the production. In this study, marketing margins of chickpea are calculated according to current and real prices (2017=100). Producer and consumer chain indexes are also calculated according to current prices and compared with annual inflation rates. In fifteen years, the average yield was determined as 113 kg da(-1), and the average consumption per person was 6.5 kg year. In fifteen years, the producer earned from 1 kg chickpea production increased by 55% and the amount paid by the consumer increased by 86%. In the fifteen-year period, prices have been in real favor for the producers and against the consumer. The model related to chickpea production function was estimated and agricultural real worker price was found to be effective on chickpea production.

    Keles, Serafettin; Keskin, Atilla; Ertek, Nur

    Many fields of science, the economy being first, aim to ensure that the individuals and the society lead a happy and satisfactory life. Many studies attempted to measure the life satisfaction by the means of demographical, genetic, psychological and economic variables; however, the social capital has been largely overlooked in this manner. This study discusses the relationship between the social capital and the life satisfaction. In the study, in which the structural equation model was employed, the findings suggest that there is a positive relationship between the life satisfaction and the social capital. The associational social capital (0.65), Cognitive social capital (0.62) and the structural social capital (0.31) have an intermediate level effect on the life satisfaction in a positive direction.
