Turkey’s total number of agricul- tural researchers (in FTEs) grew considerably during 2009–2012. At GDAR agencies, this growth mostly represented increased numbers of MSc-qualified scien- tists, whereas at the universities the increase was predominantly in PhD-qualified scientists.

The 2011 restructuring of Turkey’s agricultural ministry led to a stronger government commit- ment to agricultural R&D, but the level of investment as a share of AgGDP remains relatively low, particularly compared with average shares of most European Union countries.
