The European Union (EU) hopes to motivate a sustainable green transition in response to widespread concern that the earth is heading toward environmental calamities due to climatechange issues. The present study focused on analyzing the impact of the EGD on Agricultural carbon emissions in Turkey. European Union and Turkey have strong trade relations; Turkey exports a significant portion of its exports to the European Union. This fact made it compulsory for Turkey to follow the regulations implemented in the EU regarding trade. In reaction to the European Union's EGD, Turkey formulated EGD Action Plan, this plan laid down the roadmap for Turkey to follow the regulations under the EU's EGD. Agriculture carbon emissions in Turkey and EGD are taken as the variables for the study. In the present report, an attempt has been made to analyze impact of the EGD on agriculture carbon emissions. In study, we consider agriculture CO2emissions as the dependent-variable and the EGD as the independentvariable. Secondary data from the various published sources have been collected and analyzed with statistical tools, and findings are drawn from them. Statistical tools like Unit Root Tests, the Ordinary Least Square Test, and Auto regressive distributed lag model, are used to interpret the impact. The result of our study shows that EGD significantly impacts agriculture carbon emissions.
