The objective of this study is to analyze the factors determining wheat producers' adaptation to climate change in the Yalvaç district. Using a stratified random sampling method, 116 farmers were interviewed face-to-face. Binary logistic regression was applied to identify the factors influencing farmers' choices of adaptation measures. The results show that several factors significantly affect producers' adaptation decisions, including access to agricultural credit, the use of non-family labor, receipt of climate alerts, interaction with agricultural authorities, and soil analysis. These factors play a crucial role in the adoption of adaptive practices such as increasing fertilizer doses, crop rotation, and changing wheat varieties. This research provides critical insights for shaping agricultural policies aimed at improving the resilience of producers to climate change and enhancing their adaptive capacity.
