The municipality of Antalya has initiated the innovative Farmer Card Project, aimed at addressing the urgent issue of hazardous agricultural packaging waste, which is a significant environmental and health concern in the city due to intense farming activities. The main goal of the project is to reduce plastic pollution from pesticide-laden packaging, which negatively impacts soil, causes pollution, and indirectly pollutes 98% of Antalya’s drinking water. With the large scale of agricultural activities in the area, waste management has become an essential priority. This groundbreaking initiative introduces a sustainable system that includes solar-powered, fire-resistant smart containers called “Waste Vending Machines.“ These machines are strategically positioned in agricultural areas and are monitored 24/7, using magnetic keyfobs provided to farmers for access. When farmers deposit agricultural waste packaging, it is automatically weighed, and they earn reward points on their keyfobs. These points can be redeemed for agricultural supplies or discounts, encouraging responsible disposal practices. An associated mobile app, “Çevre Dostu Çiftçi” (Eco-Friendly Farmer), enables farmers to keep track of their points, rewards, and find the nearest vending machines, making the process convenient and accessible. This project not only reduces environmental damage but also promotes a culture of sustainability among local farmers, motivating them to embrace greener practices. The initiative is related to SDGs 2, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 17.
