  7. Production & Consumption • Turkey is the second country with 65 000 ha fig plantation (15,53%) but covers the 28,78% (280 000 ha) of fig production of the whole world. • The most suitable ecological environment for fig farming is Menderes rivers basins in Aegean Region. Especially İzmir and Aydın are the important production areas.

  8. 95% of the businesses which are dealing with fig farming locates in rural areas. These different sized businesses contain tree havings from different numbers from 50 to 5000. Only during the fig harvest, extra labor force is needed and this needed lobor force is supplied mostly by low-income family members. • At least half of these families needs extra 2 workers during harvest periods. Thereby, during harvest periods 30 000 agriculture labor have opportunity for employment.

Dried fig  as appetizers in international markets and also is used in the production of cakes, sorts of food, sliced bread, tucks and fruit mixtures • Low-quality figs  pectin • Scrap figs  ethyl alcohol • And the seeds remaining while the ethyl alcohol is produces  pigment, cosmetic and medicine industry
