Abstract :In this study conducted in Polatlı farm, three different applications in wheat production were used. These are conventional tillage, reduced tillage and direct seeding application. The specific draft forces of equipments used in applications were measured. The effects on penetration resistance, surface roughness, total fuel consumption, plant emergence and yield of applications were examined. The biggest and least fuel consumptions were obtained in conventional appli-cation (5.15 l/da) and direct seeding (0.91 l/da), respectively. 2007 and 2008 years of yield values were found 121.40-255.86 kg/da for conventional apply, 108.85-223.60 kg/da reduced tillage and 104.15-230.41 kg/da for direct seeding application, respectively.Keywords : Direk ekim, buğday, yakıt tüketimi
