    (Ege Univ, Fac Fisheries, 2025) Yucel, Sennan; Yigit, Tuce Altin; Goren, Gulden Uzun
    This research is the first empirical study in the aquaculture sector that aims to examine the total quality management (TQM) practices of managers and employees in aquaculture processing plants. Although the concept of quality has existed since ancient times in human history, it has gained its modern meaning as TQM in the last fifty years. In this context, the aim of the study is to evaluate the implementation of TQM in the aquaculture sector and to reveal its effects on the competitiveness and sustainability of enterprises. The population of the research consists of managers and employees working in Aquaculture Processing Plants. In the research, demographic and socio-economic status of the participants were determined. In addition, in the analysis of the data, it was aimed to obtain more meaningful and summarised factors by using the dimension reduction method. The 26 variables applied in the field were reduced to 6 (six) factors by factor analysis. These factors explained 70.724% of the total variance. The findings of the study are expected to provide a significant contribution to the scientific literature in this field as well as preparing the ground for further and comprehensive research.

    (Ege Univ, Fac Fisheries, 2025) Yucel, Sennan; Yundem, Sebahattin; Goren, Gulden Uzun
    This research is one of the rare studies that aims to examine the perceptions of the members of Fisheries Cooperatives and Agricultural Credit Cooperatives on cooperatives together. The demographic, socio-cultural and socio-economic conditions of the members of cooperatives, their demands from cooperatives and their perceptions of cooperatives, which are among the pioneers of horizontal organisation in civil society organisations, were examined. A scale consisting of multiple choice and Likert type questions was used in the study. The data obtained from the research were analysed by descriptive and logistic regression methods. It was determined that the average age of the members of Fishery Cooperatives was 49.170+9.884 and the average age of the members of Agricultural Credit Cooperatives was 48.448+10.037. While there were no members with postgraduate education among both Fishery Cooperative members and Agricultural Credit Cooperative members, 0.8% of Fishery Cooperative members and 4% of Agricultural Credit Cooperative members were bachelor's degree holders, 33% of Fishery Cooperative members and 39% of Agricultural Credit Cooperative members were high school graduates. It was found that education level, years of cooperative membership, purpose of using the internet, and additional income had an effect on the members definition of their financial situation, while the belief that the main purpose of cooperatives is not to make profit was negatively affected by reading the cooperative agreement and additional income, and the age of cooperative members also negatively affected the belief that bureaucracy negatively affects cooperative activities. Due to the characteristics of their products, it was found that the members of the Fishery Cooperative were concerned about the sale of products and both cooperative members complained about the high cost of service procurement.
