    An ontology for apiculture practices (Onto4API): towards semantic interoperability and knowledge sharing in the apiculture community
    (Ege Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü Müdürlüğü, 2025-12-31) Aydın, Şahin; Okuyan, Samet; Solmaz, Serhat
    This study presents the development of Onto4API, a domain ontology designed to support semantic interoperability and structured knowledge sharing in the field of apiculture. The ontology addresses the lack of standardized, machine-interpretable vocabularies that hinder knowledge integration and decision support in traditional beekeeping practices. Developed under the guidance of subject-matter experts from the Türkiye Apiculture Research Institute, Onto4API formalizes key concepts, relationships, and production practices in modern beekeeping. The ontology was built using OWL 2 and RDF/XML syntax, and includes 67 classes, six object properties, and 10 data properties. Following the METHONTOLOGY framework, our approach ensures methodological rigor from specification to implementation and evaluation, combining expert validation, reasoning-based consistency checks, and SPARQL-based functional testing. To demonstrate its practical utility, a web-based educational tool was implemented using ASP.NET MVC and dotNetRDF. This prototype enables users to explore apiculture knowledge through SPARQL-based queries in a guided question-and-answer format. By providing a reusable and extensible semantic framework, Onto4API lays the groundwork for future ontology-driven agricultural systems, including intelligent decision support, educational tools, and interoperable data services in apiculture and beyond.

    Exploring two decades of change in Turkish apiculture through spatiotemporal data analysis
    (Siirt Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi, 2025) Aydın, Şahin
    This study examines the apiculture sector in Türkiye between 2004 and 2024 using data from the Turkish Statistical Institute, focusing on temporal, spatial, and relational dimensions. Time-series analyses, spatial visualizations, productivity comparisons, and correlation assessments were applied to reveal the structural transformation of the sector. The findings indicate a steady increase in modern hive numbers alongside a gradual decline in traditional hives. While overall honey production has grown, per-hive productivity has not improved significantly, suggesting that modernization alone is insufficient. Spatial analyses revealed that provinces such as Ordu, Muğla, and Adana remain dominant in production, yet substantial regional inequalities persist. Comparative and relational analyses highlighted a strong positive relationship between modern hive adoption and honey output, whereas traditional hives contributed little. The study concludes that Turkish apiculture is undergoing a modernization-driven transformation of hive structures and production practices, but efficiency stagnation and regional disparities necessitate complementary policies and practices to ensure sustainable development.
