The Regulation on the Amendment of the Farmer Registration System Regulation, prepared by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, was published in the Official Gazette and entered into force as of 1 September.

In this context, changes were made to receive applications via e-Government.
Farmers who will update their products will be able to make their applications via e-Government as of October. The farmers who will make product updates will benefit from this, they will make changes in their land information, and the farmers who will register to the ÇKS for the first time will apply to the Provincial / District Directorate.
ÇKS APPLICATION TIME HAS BEEN REWARDED TO 31 DECEMBER
The Farmer's Certificate, which is obtained from the Chambers of Agriculture every year, will be taken only in the first application for all applications.
The application period, which was between September 1 and June 30 of the following year in the previous regulation, has been moved to December 31, when the application starts, in order to make production planning. Thus, the application period, which was previously 10 months, has been reduced to 4 months. In addition, farmers who apply until December 31 will be able to make product changes in February.
In addition, the signatures of the headman and 2 members on the product declaration forms were removed as they did not actually serve the purpose.
