Abstract :In this study, a face-to-face survey study was conducted with 58 racehorse breeders and business owners located in Adana, Ankara, Mersin and Sanliurfa provinces about racehorsing during the pandemic period. The study data were analyzed and evaluated with the SPSS 22.0 program. According to the results, according to the gender, horse breeding is largely carried out by men, participants have the most high school graduates as an education level, the average age is 38.6, and they have experienced the most financial losses during the pandemic period, the reason for which is the inability to hold competitions. When these results of breeders are evaluated, it is suggested that it would be beneficial for them to be evaluated regionally in a sub-branch of the ministry and to provide informative trainings for horsemanship in cooperation with the university, the ministry and TJK.
