description The purpose of this study is to determine the factors affecting the entrepreneurial behaviours of the farmers producing vegetables in the greenhouse in the Menderes district of Izmir province-Türkiye. The data were collected from 94 farmers using proportional sampling and face-to-face survey method. Five-point Likert scale was used in the analysis of the entrepreneurial behaviours of the farmers. Fuzzy Paired Comparison Method was used in the analysis of the criteria that the farmers give importance to when deciding on greenhouse vegetable growing. According to the results of the study, the average age of the farmers is 46.94 years, and the average education period is 9.30 years. The average greenhouse land size of the farmers is 5.78 decares. Farmers consider the profitability level and sustainability of the activity, financing opportunity and total cost as important factors in agricultural entrepreneurship. Farmers also consider water supply, marketing opportunities and seed-seedling supply as the most important factors in greenhouse vegetable entrepreneurship. The most important criterion in greenhouse vegetable growing is production costs, followed by marketing opportunities and price. The most important future goals of the farmers, who produce two vegetables: cucumbers and lettuce in the greenhouse per year are minimizing the hazards during production and marketing and sustaining greenhouse vegetable production.
