Abstract :In this study conducted in Polatlı farm, four different applications in chick pea production were used. These are conventional application, reduced tillage, direct seeding with herbicides application and direct seeding without herbicides application. In grow chick pea, it was found that the highest energy usage proportion in total input energy is fertilizer energy, followed by seed, fuel-oil and machine energies, respectively. To take account of energy output/input rate the highest rate obtained from direct seeding with herbicides application, followed by direct seeding (1.369), conventional application (1.192) and reduced tillage (1.141), respectively. Consequently; it was understood that direct seeding application can be applied in chick pea production as well.Keywords : Doğrudan ekim, enerji bilançosu, nohut
