For this purpose, firstly, physical geographic features of Sanliurfa and statistical data on agricultural and industrial activities in Sanliurfa were obtained. Then, effects of these physical features on other economic activities and the influence of those features on the distribution of industrial plants and industrial activities were analysed in terms of distribution, relation and casuality principles.

Geomorfically Sanliurfa is a slightly hilly place with plateaus and plains. The main river in Sanliurfa is the Euphrates – the biggest river of Turkey. Naural vegatation of Sanliurfa consists of steppe. These physical geographic fetaures of Sanliurfa cause intensive agricultural activites all across the province. Sanliurfa province covers 18,584 km² and 60% of this area is convenient for agriculture.
