Abstract
We face to GAP which is important for social economic development in South East Anatolia Region to remove development differences among regions in Turkey, as a project that has been built on dams. Targeting to overcome underdevelopment of Region by developing energy production and irrigated agriculture, GAP may bring some risks together with dams which were built on rivers, both for aquatic and terristorial ecosystem.Despite the fact that GAP is a multi sector project, its main target is to produce economic development with irrigated agriculture intended for Region. Nevertheless, along with irrigated agriculture ranging GAP in irrigated agriculture fields, some environmental problems are seen to increase.With irrigated agriculture, not resting agricultural earth and farmers? using much more chemical (fertilizer and pesticide) materials for treatment purposes to produce maximum feasibility in watery agricultural conditions, resulted an important increase in the proportion of usage of chemicals (fertilizer and pesticide) which have some negative results as means of environment. Another important environmental problem along with irrigatedd agriculture is also salinition in soil. İrrigated agriculture is mostly done by release irrigating method. This situation, because of the vaporization percentage is high causes to increase salt proportion in soil. Salinition in soil influences feasibility in the capacity of the soil negatively and causes that soil being unable to be cultivated day by day.In this research, with GAP it has been searched whether farmers being an active components of agriculture, develop environmental consciousness in the ontext of environmental problems which have been emerged in irrigated agriculture fields. Research is based on qualitative search technique and fulfilled in-depth interviews with 20 farmers and experts and 4 experts within.In result of data found in research shows that, about usage of chemicals (fertilizer and pesticide) which their influences are not directly observed and environmental relationship, farmers are not even in the phase information which is fore condition of consciousness. About salinity in soil in which their influences are observed directly, the result shows that farmers, this time, are in phase information; but their still insist on irrigation method which cause salinity, shows that they couldn?t develop environmental consciousness across emerged environmental problems.Keywords: SAP, environmental problems, environmental conciousness
