Abstract :Objective: The aim of this study is to examine wheat varieties and quality values coming to Ankara, Eskişehir and Konya commodity exchanges by comparing them with the quality purchasing table of Turkish Grain Board. Material and Methods: Wheat and quality values purchased in Eskişehir, Konya and Polatlı Commodity Exchanges (2018 year). Implementation of production techniques, 425 producers were interviewed face-to-face and data were collected by questionnaire. Results: T he wheat with the highest protein value was obtained from Konya and Polatlı commodity exchanges (90-95% good and very good) according to the purchasing table of the Turkish Grain Board. This was followed by the Eskişehir commodity exchange (86-88% good and very good). However, other quality values (hectolitre, gluten index, sedimentation value) were found to be low. It was concluded that this situation was caused by the wrong practices and climatic conditions in the cultivation technique. In the study area, 44.9% of the producers did not apply the cultivation technique, 30.1% of the applicants were partially applied and 24.9% of the applicants were identified. Conclusion: It was concluded that the most important problem in quality wheat production was insufficient cultivation techniques.
