On farm trial is considered as one way of information flow between researchers, extensions and farmers. In the present study 6 advanced durum wheat lines along with a local durum check (Zardak) were evaluated in farmersandrsquofield in 3 locations, in Kermanshah province. The genotypes were compared in a RCBD design with 4 replications. Based on the results from analysis of variance in general, no lines out yielded the check, except the line DKGST- 21 in Islam Abad with 30% out yielding. Large scale evaluation at farmerandrsquos level will be needed to make precise comparison of the lines, however diversification of the cropping system by inputting new cultivars is useful to stabilize the yield specially in rainfed condition.
