The Impacts of Atlantic Bonito Rush and the Avian Influenza on Meat Products in Turkey
The Atlantic bonito rush experienced in Turkey in the Fall of 2005 coincides with the avian influenza food scare that happened exactly at the same time-period in the country. In this research using time-series techniques, we investigate how the food scare and the excess fish caught jointly influence the demand for meat products in Turkey.

Dynamics of Price Transmission in the Presence of a Major Food Safety Shock: Impact of H5N1 Avian Influenza on the Turkish Poultry Sector
This article addresses the dynamic impact of the 2005 H5N1 avian influenza outbreak on the Turkish poultry sector. Contemporary time-series analyses with historical decomposition graphs are used to address differences in monthly price adjustments between market levels along the Turkish poultry supply channel. The empirical results show that price adjustments are asymmetric with respect to both speed and magnitude along the marketing channel. Results also reveal a differential impact of the exogenous shock on producers and retailers. The findings have critical efficiency and equity implications for the supply-chain participants.avian influenza, chicken, food safety shock, price transmission dynamics, supply chain, Turkey, Agribusiness, Demand and Price Analysis, Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety, International Development, Livestock Production/Industries, Q11, Q13,

Adopting GM crops? A social Multi' Criteria Evaluation for the case of Cotton Farming in Turkey
This paper uses social multi-criteria evaluation (SMCE) as a powerful, transparent and pluralistic
methodology for analyzing a complex and conflicting problem: the decision about the approval and
adoption of GM cotton farming in Turkey. At this aim, four cotton farming alternatives including
business as usual (BAU), ecological farming (ECO), GMO farming (GM) and good agricultural
practice (GAP) are evaluated using a set of environmental, social and economic criteria chosen based
on an extensive review of cotton and GMO literatures and several in-depth interviews with key
stakeholders and experts. Such an analysis showing the socioeconomic and environmental
implications of different farming practices and their consequences for different constituencies provide
a rich background for policymaking within a multi-layered system of governance. The paper also
offers insights to public decision-makers of other potential GMO adopting countries regarding the
adoption of GM crops and the allocation of public funds among alternative agricultural practices
