Through this information, soil suitability values were found according to its analyzed characteristics in addition to climate characteristics and according to (Sys <em>et al.,</em> 1993) standards, which finally came to establish appropriate soil as well as land values for wheat and barley crops. The results indicated that the lands of the region are classified according to their suitability for the production of selected crops into highly suitable lands (S1) for the cultivation of wheat and barley, and constitute (7.70%) of the study samples and suitable lands (S2) for cultivation, and constitute (92.30%) of the study samples, with Considering that the climate factor was not specific for the cultivation of wheat and barley crops.
