3 projects in the subjects of sowing time, irrigation and fertilizer doses were carried out and extension activities finalized by the GAP Agricultural Research Institute Directorate between 2007-2013 years under Sanliurfa conditions. In the projects, it was aimed to determine the appropriate planting time and fertilizer doses (nitrogen, phosphorus) and irrigation effects on yield for the safflower plant grown under region conditions. In the planting time study; the highest seed yield was reported from the October 30 with 4260 kg ha-1 and the lowest yield from the April 5 with 980 kg ha-1 (Hatipoglu et al., 2012). In the irrigation study; the differences were not found statistically between the yields of winter safflower seed, at the summer safflower the planting S8 subject(stem elongation period 1 water + before flowering 1 water + seed formation phase 1 water), in limited irrigation conditions the S9 subject (50% of the amount of applied water to S8) proposed(Nacar et al., 2015). In the fertilizer dose study; it was concluded that the fertilizer doses of 7.6 kg/da N and 6.2 kg/da P205 should be applied for optimum yield under the Talat Demirören Research Station conditions, the fertilizer doses of 5.4 kg/da N and 3.9 kg/da P205 should be applied for optimum yield under the Tatlıca Research Station conditions(Saracoglu et al., 2016).
