Abstract

Rosa damascena is widely used in the perfume, cosmetics, food, and medicine industrie around the world. Especially in the last two years, the use of drugs containing Rosa damascena has been emphasized in the treatment of Covid19 patients. In order to ensure the sustainability of these studies and to get to know Rosa damascena better, first of all, the ecological demands of Rosa damascena should be determined, and to expand the production area together with planning studies. In this study, the necessary ecological criteria (soil, climate, topography) for Isparta rosa growing were determined. An ecological modeling of potential agricultural areas suitable for Isparta rosa cultivation was made using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Remote Sensing-Geographic Information Systems (RS-GIS), Potential Isparta rosa production areas were determined spatially. With this study, it was determined that 105,637 ha (12.12%) of Isparta’s land was classified as “very suitable” for rose cultivation, but rose cultivation was carried out on an area of only 2,975 ha. Physical assessment was revealed that the areas suitable for Isparta rose cultivation were significantly restricted by the socio-economic structure of the province.
