    Using valuable genetic resources of local origin for improving wheat is essential for current breeding projects of Tajikistan. Thus, the main objective of the current project was to identify the areas of Tajikistan where wheat landraces and old varieties are still grown and make collections of them. With this purpose, a survey was carried out in mountainous districts of Tajikistan during summer of 2013 and 2014. The farmers who still maintain these landraces were interviewed with the goal of und erstanding socio-economic issues of growing landraces.
