"...The entire collection mission's material was mainly collected in private plots. Locals said that these varieties were sown by their parents. There is no doubt that delivery of seeds of released varieties to mountainous areas causes difficulties because cropping area is small and subdivided into smaller plots of some hundreds square meters. That’s why local people produce seeds themselves. Sowing, cultivation and harvesting are carried out manually. The local people annually secure consistent harvests, which meet demands of local population. There is no record of disease and pests. The locals say that they have never encountered any diseases. They fertilize the crops with organic fertilizers only. The collection mission collected material is of great interest to selection as initial material for disease and fall-off resistance as well as drought resistance..." 

"...The collection mission has collected interesting types of wheat material with compact ear (Triticum compactum L.)and other types of wheat, naked barley (Hordeum himaleyense L.), wild rye, aegilops (Aegilops vavilovii) that are of interest to selection of drought resistant varieties. The collection includes local varieties of grain legumes such as chickpea, bean and faba beans. The entire material was collected at 400 to 2700 m above sea level. We have shown interest to the collected material especially the wheat owing to disease and lodging resistance as well as shattering of grain resistance. The unbearded types have a big ear "...

"...Mainly multi row barley, which has been harvested and tied in sheaf was  founded. These varieties can be used as a source due to shattering of grain resistance, since all ears in sheaf were unshattered. There were two types related to spontaneous with white and black ears. The only one sample of Hordeum bulbosum aroused our interest by never personally recorded height..."

"...The Aegilops sp. were collected along the road far away from communities as those next to communities were harvested for livestock fodder. Those also have been collected  in fenced areas (graves and mosque)..."

"...We found fodder grass everywhere mowed. Grain legumes were bought at market place and from individuals. Variety of colors of grain legume seeds depended on the place of growing. Virtually all crops were in blossom and ripening at 2700 m above sea level when were collected.
