Abstract
   The research was conducted at Kalar Technical College – Garmian Polytechnic University in Garmian region during the growing season 2023, using  randomized complete block design (RCBD) with six replications, to evaluate yield performance of four wheat cultivars i.e, (Al-Rashi, Adana99, Wafia, and Deng) under semi-arid conditions. Analysis of variance showed a significant difference between genotypes for all traits measured in this experiment (P<0.05). . For grain yield and number of spikes per m2, there was no significant difference between Deng, Wafla and Adana 99 (max. 343.3 for Adana99), but they had significantly higher values than Al-Rashid (P<0.05), while in spike length Al-Rashid had the longest spike (13.53 cm; P<0.05). Adana 99 had significantly the highest number of seeds per spike (48.36; P<0.05). For the weight of 1000 seeds, Deng, Wafia and adana 99 (max. 45.04 gm for Deng) were also able to have significantly higher weights than the local wheat cultivar Al Rashid which displayed a comparatively lower average weight for this particular characteristic, which was (37.44 g). The research recommends that Adana wheat cultivar has superior performance compared to other cultivars, making it well-suited  to be cultivated in Garmian area.
