Abstract
Bu anket çalışması ile Türkiye’de ruminant sağlığı alanında çalışan veteriner hekimlerin ülkemiz hayvancılığı ve ekonomik durumları ile ilgili değerlendirmelerinin ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Elektronik posta ile gönderilen ankete yedi farklı coğrafi bölgedeki 56 ilden toplam 326 veteriner hekim katılmıştır. Kendilerine bu alanla ilgili 19 soru sorulmuştur. Çalışma sonuçları genel olarak değerlendirildikten sonra veriler; veteriner hekimlerin çalışma şekline göre 3 grup, yaşlarına göre 4 grup ve coğrafi bölgelerine göre 3 grupta ele alınmıştır. Sığırcılıkla ilgili en önemli sorunlar; sırasıyla yem fiyatları, yetiştiricinin kar edememesi, üretici süt-et fiyatlarının düşüklüğü, mera sorunu, kırsal bölgeden göç, hastalıklara bağlı kayıplar ve kuraklık olmuştur. Koyun-keçi yetiştiriciliğinde en önemli sorunlar; sırasıyla mera, yem fiyatları, kuraklık, yetiştiricinin kar edememesi, üretici süt-et fiyatlarının düşüklüğü ve hastalıklardır. Veteriner hekimlerin %83,13’ü bölgelerindeki hayvan sayısının azaldığını ve %60,68’i ise 6-30 sığır kapasitesinde olan işletme grubundan azaldığını belirtmiştir. Meslektaşların %56,31’i hayvancılığın sürdürülebilir karlı olma olasılığının %25’in altında ve %20,92’si hiç karlı olmayacağı görüşündedir. Veteriner hekimlere gelir düzeylerinin geçmiş yıllara göre değişimi sorulduğunda %58,77’si olumsuz ve %29,23’ü kısmen olumsuz olarak değerlendirmiştir. Gelecek 10-20 yıldaki ruminant hekimliği hakkında %49,39’u olumsuz ve %33,44’ü kısmen olumsuz düşünmektedirler. Meslektaşlarımızın %63,80’i kendi çocuklarının veteriner hekim olmasını istememektedir. Önümüzdeki 10 yıl içerisinde gelişme potansiyeli en yüksek alanlar sorulduğunda pet sektörü %41,01, biyoteknoloji %17,03, sürü sağlığı %15,77, organik tarım ve hayvancılık %15,46, halk sağlığı %7,26, hayvan refahı %3,47 olarak yanıtlanmıştır. Sonuç olarak; veteriner hekimler ruminant hayvancılığının küçüldüğünü ve ruminant hekimliğinin daralacağı görüşündedirler.
In this survey study, it is aimed to reveal the assessments of veterinarians working in the field of ruminant health in Türkiye regarding the livestock and economic situation of our country. A total of 326 veterinarians from 56 provinces in 7 different geographical regions participated in the survey, which was sent by e-mail and consisted of 19 questions. Subsequently, after a comprehensive evaluation of the study's findings, the data were categorized into three groups based on the veterinarians' modes of operation, four groups according to their age, and three groups corresponding to their geographical regions. The most important problems related to cattle breeding were feed prices, inability of the breeder to make a profit, low producer milk and meat prices, pasture problem, migration from the rural region, losses due to diseases and drought, respectively. The most important problems in sheep and goat breeding are pasture, feed prices, drought, inability of the breeder to make a profit, low producer milk and meat prices and diseases, respectively. Notably, 83.13% of veterinarians stated that the number of animals in their region had decreased, and 60.68% stated that the number of animals in their region had decreased from the operating group with a capacity of 6-30 cattle. Also 56.31% of colleagues believe that the probability of livestock farming being sustainably profitable is less than 25%, and 20.92% believe that it will not be profitable at all. When veterinarians were asked about the change in income levels compared to previous years, 58.77% rated it negatively and 29.23% rated it partially negatively. In the next 10-20 years, 49.39% of them think negatively and 33.44% partially negatively about ruminant medicine. Additionally, 63.80% of our colleagues want their children to become veterinarians. When asked about the areas with the highest development potential in the next 10 years, the pet sector was answered as 41.01%, biotechnology as 17.03%, herd health as 15.77%, organic agriculture and animal husbandry as 15.46%, public health as 7.26%, animal welfare as 3.47%. As a result, veterinarians believe that ruminant animal husbandry is shrinking and ruminant medicine will shrink.
