Turkish retirees engaging in agricultural projects

Overview

Retirees in various regions of Turkey are engaging in agricultural and livestock projects to transition into new lifestyles.

In Edirne, long-term fruit cultivation projects have been established, such as a 15-year-old pear orchard in which yields have increased despite hot weather. In Yozgat, retirees have spent 15 years converting steppe land into orchards and vineyards intended for personal consumption and wildlife habitats.

In Zonguldak, a former miner has utilized retirement severance pay and inherited land to establish a livestock farm. This venture involves raising cattle and small livestock to produce and sell cheese and yogurt for income.
