This study was carried out in order to determine the cost and benefit of investment, cost price, margin safety ratio, gross margin, benefit-cost ratio, and economic value of the wheat seed losses in processing lines of domestic systems of Ar-Mashin, Arvin-Sanat, Ramsanat Bhareh, and Azaran Boojar lines, located in Fars, Khorasan Razavi, Khouzestan and Golestan provinces, respectively in 2018. In this case, profitability analysis and engineering economic indicators were considered to achieve the research objectives. According to results, the average cost price of wheat seed (per kg) in target processing lines and provinces was estimated to be 19633.9 Iranian Rials, which was lower than selling price in most of the provinces. Average gross margins for processing lines in Jovein Cultivation and Industry, Fars Thousand Khoosheh Talayehdaran, Amiran Zagros Taha, Army Sample, Sabz Dasht Sorkheh, and Razmandegan Companies in target provinces were positive and was 11.2 billion Iranian Rials, but, this gross margins in Marvdasht Rural Cooperative Company, Rural Cooperative Company of Gonbad, and Zarrin Daneh Benvar Company in Khouzestan were negative. Average benefit-cost ratio in domestic processing lines was 1.05 during the analysis period. Also, average useful waste separated from the seed processing line was 20.2%, and the value of lost seeds was 958.6 million Iranian Rials. Therefore, it is recommended that profitable companies continue their activities by increasing the amount of purchased inbound seeds to minimize losses and receive positive economic benefits.
