Özet
A study was conducted to determine the appropriate peach orchard locations among Tokat Kazova lands (Turkey) and to classify the lands according to their suitability for peach cultivation by means of Geographic Information System (GIS). The distances and elevation differences of possible orchard locations to/from the available water resources, soil profile depth, soil profile texture, frost risk, land aspect, and land slope were considered as criteria to classify the lands of Tokat Kazova to determine appropriate lands for peach cultivation. These criteria with their average influence rates on peach cultivation were evaluated by the ArcMap software. The method of weighted data analysis was used to determine and classify the lands of Tokat Kazova for peach cultivation. The analysis results showed that 18% of study area is suitable for peach growing, 38% is moderately suitable, 15% is marginally suitable, 11% is …
