Introduction
Archaeological evidence shows that humans were consuming hazelnuts as far back as 7000 BC. Since then, hazelnuts have been an important part of many cultures’ diets.
Historical documents state that hazelnuts were produced on the
Black Sea coast in northern Turkiye 2300 years ago, and that hazelnuts have
been exported from Turkiye to other countries for the last six centuries.
Turkiye, one of the few countries in the world with appropriate weather
conditions for hazelnut production, accounts for 75% of total global production
and 70-75 percent of exports.
Hazelnut gardens, which are high in number along Turkiyes Black Sea coasts, are spread over an area of no more than 30 kilometers from the coast to the interior.
