The research aimed to study the impact of modern technologies on  economic efficiency of wheat crop in the New Valley Governorate, To achieve this goal, a cluster sample was drawn from  Al-Kharga district, divided into two groups according to the cultivated wheat varieties, each group was divided into sub-groups representing farmers who used mechanization. Using the analysis of variance method to compare the different technological groups in terms of economic efficiency. Results show that the third technological combination, which represents farmers high productive seeds with the use of agricultural mechanization, was superior to its counterpart from other combinations.
