Summary/Abstract: Iğdır has been a complete agriculture, livestock and trade center from past to present due to the features and richness offered by the geographical environment. This situation continues today and field crops cultivation is very common. With the effects of low annual rainfall (252 mm), favorable temperature conditions and widespread and easy irrigation, industrial crops such as cotton and sugar beet are widespread, and today, the most important source of income is “apricot” and “apple” cultivation. In order to increase production and income in Iğdır, fruit gardens, especially apricot and apple, need to be improved in terms of quality and yield. Producers should get acquainted with technical knowledge, seed, tree species, production, irrigation, fertilization, pruning, spraying types and methods, price setting and sales - market issues through cooperatives that are the key of real agricultural development.
