Abstract

Spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.) is regarded as a crop with high nutritional properties. Cultivar Nirvana was analyzed on nine locations in semiarid conditions of northern Serbia in order to assess the effects of different agroecological conditions on the organic spelt wheat production, grain yield and yield components, as well as the quality of the spelt wheat. The highest dehulled grain yield was obtained in Nadalj organic farm (3.98 t ha-1) on a carbonated chernozem, and the highest protein content in whole grain flour was found in organic spelt wheat from Pančevo (13.94%). Correlation analysis showed significant positive correlations among grain yield, spike length, spike weight, number of grains per spike, 1000-grain weight and harvest index and among plant height, spike length, weight spike, and grain weight per spike. Our study indicated that growing spelt wheat in northern Serbia could result in higher grain yield, but protein content depended on crop management on each location.

Highlights

Yield components and protein content of organic spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.) grown in different agro-ecological conditions of northern Serbia
According to Janković et al (2013), the highest yields of the spelt wheat can be achieved on chernozem soil type, but due to its lower requirements it is often produced under restricted agroecological conditions
Our study showed that location with the highest yield in Nadalj did not have high protein content of the integral flour, which is in accordance with a positive but not significant correlation between the yield and protein content (r=0.354, P
