The study of some physical properties of grain was focused on wheat seeds which were the results of Serbian breeding program. Three widely spreads seeds of wheat varieties Simonida, Dragana and NS 40S were tested. Cultivars Simonida and Dragana are hard, while the cultivar NS 40S is soft wheat. The surveying of axial dimensions confirme the seeds shape are more prolong elliptical then spheroid. Consequently the mean value of seed sphericity are low; 0.57 for Simonida and Dragana cultivars, and 0.60 within NS 40S. The seeds shape also indicates good packaging in the pale and lower mean values of porosity. The mean values of bulk density are in the range of 731.77 kg/cubic meter to 791.34 kg/cubic meter, true densities are from 1075.56 kg/cubic meter (cultivar NS 40S) till 1103.51 kg/cubic meter within Simonida variety. The slow compression test confirms that hard varities Simonida and Dragana have higher mean values of individual kernel rapture force (244.4 N and 241.4 N respectively), this mean value for soft cultivar NS 40S is 106.8 N.
