This report underscores the critical importance of family farming in ensuring sustainable agriculture, food security, and rural development in Türkiye. Family farming contributes significantly to biodiversity conservation, cultural heritage preservation, and the production of nutritious food. However, challenges such as climate change, declining natural resources, and insufficient market access threaten its sustainability.Drawing on global initiatives like the International Year of Family Farming (2014) and the UN Decade of Family Farming (2019–2028), this report highlights Türkiye's efforts, including the Türkiye Family Farming Plan and Action Plan (2014–2018). It emphasizes the need for a participatory and interdisciplinary approach to address key issues, such as supporting small-scale enterprises, integrating technological innovations, and fostering youth involvement.The report advocates for robust policy frameworks that promote sustainable practices, financial inclusion, and social protection for family farmers. It outlines strategic priorities, including rural development, risk management, and climate resilience, to guide the preparation of a comprehensive National Action Plan for Türkiye. By placing family farming at the core of its agricultural policies, Türkiye can contribute to transforming global food systems and achieving the ambitions of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
