Growing Winter Wheat Varieties and their Mixtures on Different Sites in Terms of Yields, Quality, and Economy

Original language description

Winter wheat is currently the most important cereal in the Czech Republic. Growers are trying to achieve high yields in bread quality. Based on these requirements, the currently cultivated varieties in the Czech Republic include those with different quality and yield potential. One approach that is being experimentally verified in the field is the planting of stands of two varieties cultivated on a single plot of land. We can speak about mixtures of two varieties, which should complement each other in their properties so as to achieve an increase in grain yield in the conditions of climate change. The aim of the field trial was to evaluate the varieties of winter wheat (Bohemia and Tobak), grown in mixture in terms of grain yield, quality (grain bulk density, protein content) and the economy (using gross margin) compared to traditional planting of one variety at two different sites (South Moravia, Czech Republic) in the year 2014/2015 and 2015/2016. The impact of year and location was found out. The advantage growing of winter wheat varieties in mixtures was found out in year 2015 at location with heavy soil, where better values of all assessed parameters were obtained in comparison with average of monoculture of two varieties. The yield was increased 0.2 t/ha and gross margin higher 489 CZK per hectare. The results from year 2016 showed, that year in general is one the most unpredictable factor, which can cause different results. Also location, in our case heavy and sandy soil can play important role in growing of varieties and bringing various results. The yield decrease of Tobak (to the lower level than Bohemia) in location of sandy soil (Žabčice-Písky) is typical example of unsuitable variety to the condition with higher environmental stress.
