Abstract

Research conducted by National Wheat Improvement Center provides necessary information and production sources for optimum wheat production in the shortest possible time. It is observed that moisture conservation in soil (fallow system) with other improved agronomic practices can produce the optimum yield capacity. An effective fallow system involves storing water when it comes as rain or snow and minimizing losses prior to planting the crop. Research and training programs are designed to adapt improved technology to local conditions. Also presented is an analysis of the approach taken to facilitate the transfer of technology to local conditions in Turkey.
