Collaboration and Fieldwork with Atatürk University

Agrokur has implemented a comprehensive cooperation protocol with Atatürk University to strengthen the integration between academia and industry. This collaboration aims to jointly develop educational programs and the production of organic and medicinal aromatic plants on the university’s experimental plots

As part of the project, both irrigated and rain-fed production models are being tested in a 25-decare experimental field for various product groups, including thyme, sage, rosemary, bay leaf, aronia, lemon balm, tarragon, and medicinal mint. This setup enables the comparative analysis of different production techniques and the determination of their regional suitability

Within the framework of this collaboration, Agrokur is responsible for site preparation, seedling procurement, irrigation infrastructure, equipment support, and the execution of operational processes, while Atatürk University contributes to the project through its academic expertise, research infrastructure, and student participation. Thus, applied education and production processes are advancing within an integrated framework

This model serves as a significant example of collaboration that supports Agrokur’s sustainable and scalable agricultural approach by facilitating the translation of academic research into practical applications and the development of data-driven agricultural production models.
