Bayraktar also noted that they would get hazelnuts on behalf of TMO within a certain quota and said, "We will transfer the product we receive every week to TMO. This situation is seen as an extra solution that will prevent the producer from selling hazelnuts under free market conditions."

Bayraktar pointed out that in all cooperatives affiliated to FİSKOBİRLİK, they will buy hazelnuts on behalf of TMO starting from 9 September.

Emphasizing that FİSKOBİRLİK continued the purchase of hazelnuts, he concluded, "Producers' interest in FISKOBİRLİK is increasing. This situation is quite pleasing. We want that our farmers to support FİSKOBİRLİK."
