Business Ideas Not in Turkey – Agriculture
Business Ideas Not in Turkey – The agricultural sector constitutes an important economic area in countries with high agricultural potential like Turkey. However, new and creative business ideas in this field are always valuable. Agriculture is a sector very open to business ideas, both in terms of crop cultivation and sales points, as well as growing new products and new sales potentials. When developing technology and agriculture becoming more difficult with climate change are combined with the increasing human population, the need for innovative business ideas in agriculture increases. A nice aspect is that while many people focus on electric vehicles, phones, and urban life, Agricultural entrepreneurship also offers important opportunities. Focusing on different new points rather than where everyone is looking has become valuable.
Here are some agriculture-focused business ideas that are not yet common in Turkey:
Organic Agriculture and Marketing:
Organic agriculture and marketing have become more valuable than ever. With the increasing use of chemicals and natural products being replaced by high-yield, easy-to-grow products, the demand of certain niche groups for organic fruits and vegetables has increased. This provides new opportunities and new earning potential in the organic agriculture market, even for a niche group.
Especially with some fruit and vegetable groups, you can earn significant income even in a small greenhouse and deliver them to your target audience quickly and directly by marketing them through your social media channels.
- Organic Vegetables/Fruits Cultivation: Vegetable and fruit production using natural methods without chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
- Organic Marketing Strategies: Developing marketing strategies for environmentally conscious consumers by creating a special brand.
Beekeeping and Honey Production:
Although beekeeping has been widely practiced for a very long time, we can say that it is open to new investments and opportunities in line with changing world conditions and increasing needs. Especially with the addition of digital technologies and the integration of organic production techniques, it will be possible to generate more profit and innovative solutions.
Again, here it will be possible to obtain additional income by producing different bee nutrients, not just honey. It is possible to earn profits with new and alternative products such as Royal Jelly, Pollen, and Bee venom.
- Bee Colony Management: Special care methods to increase the health and productivity of bee colonies.
- Honey Processing and Packaging: Processing the obtained honey into various products (for example, cream honey, strained honey) and aesthetic packaging.
Vertical Farming
Vertical farming applications are being carried out and used in various places worldwide. Vertical farming is an agricultural method that involves growing plants vertically stacked or in tall structures. This method offers an alternative to traditional agricultural methods by providing advantages such as limited land use, water saving, seasonal independence, and high efficiency. This allows production with new agricultural models using this technique. As an innovative business idea, it offers continuous and regular income opportunities thanks to possibilities such as urban production and continuous production throughout the year.

Aromatic Plant Cultivation:
The cultivation of plants used in the field of medicine, alternative medicine, and for the purpose of providing aroma also offers important opportunities. It is possible to earn income through the cultivation of plants such as lavender, which provides essential oil production, and saffron, which provides aroma, and the extraction and sale of oils.
- Climate and Soil Suitability Research: Determining the climate and soil conditions where aromatic plants will grow best.
- Essential Oil Production: Extracting essential oils from plants and making them usable for cosmetic or health products.
Hydroponic Farming:
- Hydroponic System Installation: Establishing special facilities for hydroponic farming, which are soilless agricultural systems.
- Plant Nutrition and Monitoring: Development of automated systems for determining and monitoring the nutritional needs of plants.
Agricultural Robots, Automation and Digital Agricultural Technologies
Agricultural robots and automation include technologies developed to make modern agriculture more efficient, sustainable, and competitive. Business ideas in this area can be detailed as follows:
Developing Agricultural Robots:
- Soil Tillage Robots: Automatic soil tillage robots can be used to prepare the field before planting.
- Harvesting Robots: Robots that perform the harvest of different crops provide savings in time and labor, especially in large agricultural areas.
- Weed Control Robots: Robots that detect and clean weeds in the field without using chemicals.
Agricultural Drones:
- Surveillance and Analysis: Drones can monitor plant health and perform data analysis by surveying agricultural lands with high-resolution cameras.
- Seed Sowing: Drones can automatically sow seeds in designated areas, which can reduce labor costs.
- Disease and Pest Detection: Drones can perform image analysis for the detection of diseases or pests in plants.
Agricultural Automation Systems:
- Smart Irrigation Systems: Smart irrigation systems that monitor soil moisture and weather conditions, and automatically adjust irrigation systems based on this data.
- Fertilization Automation: Automatic systems that fertilize according to the needs of the plants can increase efficiency and optimize fertilizer use.
- Use of Augmented Reality (AR): AR-based automation systems for farmers to perform agricultural operations more effectively.
Data Analysis and IoT (Internet of Things) Solutions:
- Agricultural Data Platforms: Platforms that collect and analyze agricultural data can assist farmers in decision-making processes.
- Crop Health Tracking Systems: Solutions that provide instant information to farmers through sensors that monitor the growth and health of plants.
- Timely Warning Systems: Systems that send timely warnings to farmers against weather changes, disease outbreaks, or other potential problems.
Energy-Saving Agricultural Systems:
- Solar-Powered Agricultural Robots: Agricultural robots powered by solar energy offer an environmentally friendly approach by reducing energy costs.
- Energy Efficiency Analyses: Systems that monitor and optimize the energy use of agricultural equipment provide support to sustainability-oriented farmers.
Training and Support Services:
- Farmer Training: Providing training to farmers on the use of agricultural robots and automation systems.
- Technical Support: Offering technical support services for the maintenance and troubleshooting of the installed systems.
This business ideas aim to increase efficiency by using modern technologies in the agricultural sector and offer farmers a more sustainable agricultural model. When starting your business, it is important to focus on adapting to the needs of farmers and existing agricultural practices.
As esular, we develop technological solutions for agricultural lands, greenhouses, and vertical farming. We offer remote irrigation, remote control, digital agriculture solutions, and wireless sensor solutions.
