%X The present study was conducted to determine the best appropriate soil tillage system to be used in safflower farming in Sivas, Turkey in terms of energy use efficiencies. Linas and Remzibey-05 safflower cultivars were used in experiments. Tillage systems were arranged as; conventional tillage system-1 (TS-1) with moldboard plough, conservation tillage system-2 with gobble disk (TS-2) and conservation tillage system-3 with chisel plough (TS-3). The energy consumptions of safflower tillage systems and cultivars and have given the signi£¿cant differences as statistically. The lowest total energy input was observed in gobble disk tillage system (TS-2), the greatest total energy input was observed in conventional tillage system (TS-1). With regard to energy efficiency parameters (except for specific energy), Linas cultivar had better outcomes in conventional tillage system. Net energy value of Linas cultivar in conventional tillage system was 27% greater than the net energy value of Remzibey-05.
