In this study, it was aimed to determine the cost components of combine harvester use and investigate combine harvester management systems in Yozgat province. The main material of this study consisted of surveys conducted to combine harvester owners determined via a systematic sampling method in the region, and secondary data. In sampling, the sample size was determined as 62. According to the research findings, the annual total income regarding combine harvester use was calculated as 18 416 USD and the annual total cost as 14 703 USD. The annual net profit was 3 713 USD and the annual profitability was 7.45%. Even though the annual profitability was lower than other investment vehicles, it was all right in an economic sense. In the region, It was seen that combine harvester use has taken shape as "a combine harvester management system". It was determined that combine harvester managers/owners have also harvested in the other regions to use combine harvester capacity. The study is important in terms of the role of machine management in agriculture and its results.
