In this study technical efficiency of wheat producers is measured by using three estimating methods of frontier production function, thereby social-economic factors affecting the technical inefficiency are determined.Required data were gathered through two stage cluster sampling method in two region of Yazd province (marvast and Herat) during the year 2002-2003. Based on the results of this research there is much discrepencies between technical efficiency of the best wheat producers with that of the others. Therefore, it is possible to increase production without any major change in technology and used resources, thus decreasing the discrepancy between the best and the other producers. The main social _ economic factors affecting the Technical inefficiency of wheat producers have been educational level, participation in training and extension services programs , ownership of agricul tural machinery and the number of land units under the wheat cultivation.
