1. Definition and Core Principles of the Contract Farming Model
Contract farming is an agricultural practice based on a formal agreement between the producer and the buyer, clearly defining the responsibilities and rights of both parties. In this model, producers (farmers) commit to supplying specific products under pre-agreed conditions and at a predetermined price to the buyer (our company).  AVCULAR PETROL OTOMOTİV TARIM ÜR. SAN. TİC. LTD. ŞTİ., our contract farming model is built on key principles aimed at high quality and sustainability:

• Predefined Conditions: We transparently define the scope and quantity of seed, fertilizer, pesticide, and training support provided, as well as the production area and product quality standards expected from the farmer.
• Guaranteed Purchase Price and Quantity: At the beginning of the season or upon signing the agreement, we guarantee the purchase of a certain quantity of product at a fixed price. This allows farmers to plan their finances more effectively and reduces risk.
• Quality and Standards: We provide clear guidelines on the agricultural methods and quality standards to be followed, while offering continuous support throughout the growing process.

2. Technical Support and Training
We offer technical consulting to our contract farmers at every stage of the process. Our agricultural engineers provide on-site guidance from planting to harvest—covering soil analysis, fertilization, irrigation, pest and disease management—ensuring farmers adopt modern and efficient farming practices, improve product quality, and reduce losses.

3. Seed and Input Support
We ensure farmers have access to the right agricultural inputs to achieve high yields and quality. In addition to supplying certified seeds adapted to local conditions, we also provide access to fertilizers, crop protection products, and irrigation technologies under favorable conditions. This support helps reduce production costs and increase efficiency.

4. Sustainable Agriculture and Eco-Friendly Practices
AVCULAR, we encourage sustainable farming practices among our contract farmers. Reducing unnecessary chemical use, enhancing soil quality through organic matter, and using water efficiently not only improve product quality but also protect environmental balance and ecosystem health.

5. Contribution to the Local Economy
Contract farming plays a key role in revitalizing the local economy.

• Income Stability: With the assurance of selling their products at a fixed price, farmers can plan their income more reliably, improving household welfare and helping reduce rural migration.
• Employment Opportunities: Increased production volume creates jobs both on the farm and in related sectors such as logistics, storage, and packaging. Seasonal agricultural employment also grows significantly.
• Technology Transfer: The use of modern agricultural equipment and techniques spreads throughout the region, boosting overall productivity and regional competitiveness.
• Local Branding: The high-quality products generated through contract farming help enhance the brand value of the region, increasing the recognition of local goods in national and international markets.

6. Mutual Trust and Sustainability
Our contract farming model is built on a foundation of long-term collaboration between farmers and our company. This relationship is strengthened through mutual trust and sustainable business strategies. While farmers gain stable access to markets, we secure a consistent supply of high-quality raw materials.

7. Social Responsibility and Public Benefit
Contract farming is not only a commercial relationship but also a reflection of our social responsibility. While stimulating the local economy, it ensures the continuation of family farming and helps preserve traditional knowledge and cultural heritage. Through this model, rural populations remain engaged in agriculture and actively contribute to regional development.
