Durum wheat due to its quality is an important crop in feeding and economics. Saji is a newly released durum wheat cultivar with a mean yield of 2824 kgha-1 which was higher than the two durum wheat (Zardak) and bread wheat (Sardari) check cultivars in different yield traits conducted during 2000-2008 cropping seasons in Iran. Its grain yield was 23% and 11% higher than those of Zardak and Sardari cultivars, respectively over the years. In farmers fields Saji cultivar producted a mean grain yield of 2767 kgha-1 which was 51% and 42% more than the yield of Zardak and Sardari cultivars, respectively. In experiments with two supplementary irrigations (during flowering to maturity stages), Saji cultivar produced 59% and 63% higher grain yield in moderate cold and moderate warm areas of Iran. Saji is a facultative cultivar with 13% seed protein. It is an early maturity cultivar, moderately resistant to rusts and bunts and resistant to lodging. It is highly adapted to moderately cold and warm rainfed areas of Iran and suitable for supplemental irrigation conditions.
