The sowing area and export of  grain  legumes  have been decreasing in Turkey.  However, Turkey is one of the most important producer  in terms of  chickpea and lentil production in the world. But, in Turkey, generally use of certificed seed of grain legumes by farmer is low. They haven’t got custom of using variety  and certificed seed is rather  expensive. Legume crops are self pollinated Therefore, the farmers are using the seeds that they produce on their own. Both public sectors and private seed companies produce the certificed grain legume seeds, but, in Turkey seed production is too  few to provide the requriment of grain legume seeds. Control of seed quality in seed production must conform to statutes of National Certification Standart. These are varietal purity, good germination, good seedling vigor, free from desease infections, free from weed seed, right moisture percentage, good level of phiysical pruity, good maturity period and uniform seed.
