PROCESS OF THE ATATÜRK FOREST FARM It was established on an area of 20 thousand decares purchased by Mustafa Kemal, in the year of 1925 under the name of “Forest Farm”. The Farm which reached 52 thousand decares surface area with the purchase of new areas in between the years of 1925-1937 was granted and entrusted to the Republic of Turkey Treasury with the testament letter of Atatürk written on 11 June 1937. The Forest Farm which was first attached to “State Agricultural Enterprises Institution” was then included within the body of “State Production Farms General Directorate”. “Atatürk Forest Farm Directorate” was founded with the Law numbered 5659 enacted on 24 March 1950 and the name of the farm was changed as “Atatürk Forest Farm- Atatürk Orman Çiftliği (AOÇ)” until today. Together with various laws which were enacted in between the years 1950-1983 a part of the AOÇ area was transferred or sold to various institutions and its surface area was reduced to 30 thousand decares. A part of such transferred area was even passed to private property from public property through the following privatizations.

S. Anli (1), F. Ozturk (1), H. Apaydin (1), and K. Yurekli (2) (1) Ankara University Agricultural Faculty Farm Structures and Irrigation Department, Ankara, Turkey ([email protected]), (2) Gaziosmanpasa University Agricultural Faculty Farm Structures and Irrigation Department, Tokat Turkey In this study, at-site and regional frequency analysis of rainfall data are carried out through methods of L-moments in Ankara province. Annual maxima and partial-duration series are formed using daily rainfall records obtained from rainfall gauging stations. In the first stage, L-moments and L-moment ratios, and probability distribution parameters of these series are computed and quantile values are estimated for various distribution and return periods for at-site frequency analysis. In the second stage, four data sets extracted from annual maxima series and annual exceedance and non-annual exceedance series are used for regional frequency analysis. Firstly, whole stations in Ankara province are assumed one region and then stations are split up three and four region using cluster analysis according to discordant stations. A set of analysis is carried out through index-storm procedure and regional homogeneity is obtained for each data set, and suitable distribution is selected for each region and probable rainfall values are estimated for various return periods via regional L-moment algorithm. In the last stage, regional growth curves are obtained with Monte Carlo simulation experiments for assessment of the accuracy of estimated rainfall quantiles.

    THIS REPORT RELATES STIRLING COUNCIL TO ITEM 12 ON THE AGENDA PROVOST’S PANEL CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S OFFICE 19 FEBRUARY 2013 NOT EXEMPT INTERNATIONAL LINKS 1 SUMMARY 1.1 This report outlines Stirling Council’s current approach to international links, and current links and relationships that exist, formally and informally. 1.2 The report details the range of international activity that Council services are involved in, that does not fall under formal, traditional twinning arrangements. 1.3 It proposes in terms of formal links that an adapted version of the “Bonn Index” is used to monitor them on a regular basis and assess any new requests. 1.4 The current request from Keçiören, Turkey is outlined and scored using the adapted Bonn Index. 2 OFFICER RECOMMENDATION(S) The Provost’s Panel is asked to: 2.1 note the current international activities Stirling Council services are involved in (Appendix 1); 2.2 note the status of current formal twinning and friendship links; 2.3 by considering the adapted version of the Bonn Index and its use in assessing the request from Keçiören, Turkey, decide if this is the mechanism that should be used in assessing future request and monitoring current links; and 2.4 make a decision based on the information and scoring regarding the friendship link request from Keçiören, Turkey and approve use of the civic budget to initially support the link. 3 CONSIDERATIONS Background to the report 3.1 In September 2008 Stirling Council agreed to develop a community-led approach to traditional twinning through financial and other support for local Twinning Associations and other community organisations which wished to undertake twinning activities, and to identify the appropriate budget(s) through which this could be resourced.

  • Turkey 2019 Crime & Safety Report: Ankara
    Turkey 2019 Crime & Safety Report: Ankara This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Ankara, Turkey. The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Turkey at Level 3, indicating travelers should reconsider travel to the country due to terrorism and arbitrary detentions. Do not travel to areas along the Turkey-Syria border, and to the southeastern provinces of Hatay, Kilis, Gaziantep, Şanlıurfa, Sirnak, Diyarbakır, Van, Siirt, Muş, Mardin, Batman, Bingöl, Tunceli, Hakkâri, and Bitlis due to terrorism. Overall Crime and Safety Situation The U.S. Embassy in Ankara does not assume responsibility for the professional ability or integrity of the persons or firms appearing in this report. The American Citizens’ Services unit (ACS) cannot recommend a particular individual or location, and assumes no responsibility for the quality of service provided. Review OSAC’s Turkey-specific page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Crime Threats There is minimal threat from crime in Ankara. Crime levels decreased significantly in 2018. Turkish citizens are the chief perpetrators and victims of the vast majority of crime in Ankara. Although violent crimes (e.g. sexual assault, rape, murder) do occur, they are infrequent or unreported, and have not had an impact on the expatriate community. Crime statistics provided by the Turkish National Police (TNP) for Ankara province in 2018 reflect the following number of reported crimes: burglary (4,083), robbery (236), vehicle break-in (1,953), vehicle theft (794), and homicide (124).

CANKAYA, N. K. DARCAN and E. GUNES, 2010. A case study for production system analysis of Turkish Angora goat farms. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 16: 512-520 The aim of this study was to determine both the current economic situation and the major characteristics of Angora goat farms. For this study, 100 goat farms were surveyed in the Ankara province, specifically, the Polatli, Gudul, Ayas, Beypazari, and Nallihan district, to examine the role breeding plays in the rural economy. In addition to technical analyses of Angora goat production, some outstanding traits of Angora goats were determined. There were no significant differences among the Polatli, Nallihan, Ayas and Gudul provinces, except for the Beypazari province in terms of goat population (P < 0.05). Over the last twenty years, the number of angora goats has decreased by almost 89%. Total mohair, milk and meat production has slumped because of the decrease in goat numbers. The main income of these farms is obtained from mohair, meat and the sale of live animals. Most of the milk produced from the goats is consumed by the families of the farmers.
