The results showed a long run relationship between the variables used. As for the results of estimating the study model in the long run using the FMOLS and DOLS estimators, it was found that the agriculture value added had a significant positive impact on economic growth, while the food production index, employment in the agriculture sector and arable land had a negative impact on economic growth.
