Bacıoğlu emphasized that the fertile lands of Trakya contributed to the country's economy not only in agriculture but also in the tourism sector. He said, "Especially Edirne is a city where agricultural production integrates with tourism almost every season, and it has always been on Türkiye's agenda. From lavender fields to vineyard harvests, canola fields to wheat harvests and hay bales after, it attracts the attention of photographers. Now, it's the turn of sunflowers... As an association, we organize various events to contribute to the promotion of the city. After the sunflower season, Trakya's lands will contribute to tourism with vineyard harvest events."
