Economy:
Turkey has considerable amount of raw materials (black and brown coal, iron, chromium and copper ore, oil). Water energy usage is significant. The industry of the country is multilateral. Craft production based on tradition (carpet weaving, goldsmith) has already lost its leading position. The main sectors are textile and food industry, tobacco processing, metallurgy or iron and aluminium and machinery production. Plant production has a leading position in agriculture. Citruses, grapevine, tobacco and cotton plants are cultivated in humid areas. Wheat and barley are grown in drier areas. Herds of animals are multiple (cattle, sheep, goats). Wool is an important material for home carpet weaving. The country focuses on tourism development which brings significant income. /Antalya, Bodrum/.
