Abstract
The article presents studies on the influence of weather conditions on the yield and quality of winter wheat food grain in Central Chernozem Region of Russia. At the same time, weather risks were identified and analyzed using correlation and regression analyses. To reduce them to a minimum, a set of measures is needed, one of which is the selection of modern varieties that are more adapted to a specific place of growth. The soft wheat variety Synthetic is shown as an example that weather conditions affect not only the yield of winter wheat, but also the quality of the crop grain. The level of yield was more influenced by precipitation than by air temperature. The thousand-kernel weight was closely and positively correlated with the air temperature; a negative correlation was found between the air temperature and the content of raw gluten in the grain.
