This research was carried out in 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 growing seasons in Eskisehir Transitional Zone Agricultural Research Institute. In the study, it was aimed to determine the yield and some quality characteristics of hulless barley in rainfed conditions. Nine lines and one registered variety (Ozen) of hulless barley were used as material for this study. In the research, number of spikes per m(2), length of stem, grain yield per unit area, grain number per spike, grain yield per spike, thousand grain weight, hectoliter weight, protein content and grain amount above 2.5 mm sieved were studied. The difference between the years was found significant regarding all the characteristics and then the years were evaluated separately. According to the results of the research; In dry conditions, G1 barley line produced the highest grain yield with 217 and 225 kg/da every two years. With regard to protein ratio, the highest value was obtained from G6 barley line with 17.4% in the first year. In the second year, G9 hulless barley line came forward with 11.8% in protein ratio. When G1 barley line, which has the highest grain yield per unit area, was examined in terms of the other characteristics, it gave good results in respect to some properties such as number of spikes per m(2), length of stem, grain number per spike.
