Type: article
Abstract: In agricultural activities carried out in our country, one of the main items that increase the cost of production is fertilizer and fertilization activities. In the researches and studies conducted, it is known that the majority of the productions in private and public areas are based on traditional understanding and far from scientific methods and methods. This is a factor that both increases the cost during the production period and causes the lack of quality and desired amount of production. The aim of this study is to understand the level of plant nutrition activities and fertilizer use during the production phase for coniferous seedlings produced in Turkish Forest Nursery production facilities. Fertilizer is a commodity that we are completely dependent on foreign countries for raw materials. Every year, millions of dollars in our budget go abroad for fertilizer supply. It should be our national duty and main goal to carry out feeding activities by bringing our own resources to the forefront and to ensure that the amount of fertilizer used is used as much as needed. The aim of the study is to prevent excessive fertilizer consumption and to ensure that these activities are carried out with scientific methods and to make suggestions to the interlocutors regarding the results.
