%X In this study, it was aimed to determine the current state of the greenhouses and high tunnel enterprises in K£¿r£¿ehir province center and its districts. For this purpose, a questionnaire was carried out in the districts of the province where greenhouse and high tunnel enterprises are located. Among 10 greenhouses and 15 high tunnel enterprises that were studied, it was found that 60% of the greenhouse enterprises, while 20% of the high tunnel enterprises carried out cultivation for 0-5 years and the greenhouse cultivation in the province does not date back a long time ago. It was determined that the enterprises established in the province are composed of unplanned and unprojected structures and they were established by observing the previous enterprises in their surroundings, and also that the ventilation openings that help natural ventilation in the area are low. It was determined that only one greenhouse enterprise benefited from the province¡¯s geothermal resources, whereas small-scale family-owned enterprises performed heating only to protect plants from frost threat and they could not make use of this inexpensive and renewable energy source because the initial investment costs are high. In order to raise awareness of the producers about the greenhouse cultivation, which is in progress, and to provide with the necessary technical information, it is essential to increase the publication activities. Additionally, it is necessary to bring in the province to greenhouse cultivation provided that the costs of geothermal energy infrastructure are financed by the authorized institutions and organizations
