Turkish agriculture faces challenges and opportunities in EU membership bid.
The article discusses how Turkey's agriculture sector has been important for employment and the economy, but still faces traditional challenges. After talks with the EU, Turkey is working to align its agricultural policies with the EU's Common Agricultural Policy. This will bring both opportunities and challenges for Turkey, with potential advantages in crops and fruits but difficulties in the animal sector. However, due to changes in trade agreements and EU policies, Turkey may not benefit as much as other new EU members. Negotiations on agriculture are expected to be tough.
