Özet
Growing of Siirt type of pistachio has a significant potential in the agriculture of Siirt province. As a result of the
studies on this issue performed by public and legal institutions in recent years, while about 2000 tons of products were
taken from the area in 4545.3 ha in 2002, these values reached about 11.000 tons of products in 25.000 ha by the end of
2014. Considering the climatic conditions of the region, the fact that summer is very hot and irregularity in the
precipitation regime further increase the importance of irrigation and make it necessary for cultural practices in
farming. However, pistachio orchards are not irrigated or tried to be contented with a little water due to the reasons
such as the topographical structure of the area where farming is performed, irrigation water constraints, and any other
reasons. The questionnaire study was carried out to determine the local farmers' tendencies on Siirt pistachio
irrigation, problems faced, and the solution offers. For this purpose, the questionnaire form consisting of 40 questions
was prepared, and data were collected using the Simple Random Sampling method. By this method, questionnaires
were filled in by making face to face interviews with 177 farmers in 73 villages of 7 districts where farming is
intensively performed. The obtained data were analyzed using MINITAB 16 statistical program. As a result of the
statistical analyses, an attempt to contribute to the solution of the problems was made by developing solutions to
identified problems.
