Description
Summary:This study revealed the development of wheat production and trade in the world and Türkiye, and the level of international competitiveness in wheat flour was determined. Türkiye ranks second in world wheat imports in terms of quantity and fourth in terms of value, and first in wheat flour export. Imported wheat is converted into flour and bakery products, most of which are exported. Türkiye exported 19.04% of world wheat flour in value and 22.45% in quantity. The study calculated competitiveness analysis for 2010-2020, and Balassa's Revealed Comparative Advantage Index (RCA) and Trade Balance Index (TBI) were used in the analysis. The mean index values were calculated as 21.10 in RCA and 0.99 in TBI. As a result of these values, it was determined that Türkiye has a high competitive advantage in wheat flour export and was a net exporter in wheat flour foreign trade.
