The Possibilities of Cultivating Spelt in Organic Productive System

Abstract

The aim of paper was to, through analyzing some important morphophysiological and productive traits of spelt and soft wheat, show out possibilities of its planting in organic productive system. The special importance was given to spelt considering its agronomic, qualitative and nutrition traits. The investigation was carried out in condition of conversion. Obtained results pointed out possibilities of succesfull spelt cultivating in mineral fertilizers free conditions and only at manure application. Further investigations are neccesary for better making conclussion about economic suistanability and other benefits of spelt cultivating in conversion and organic system of agriculture.

Cilj rada je da se kroz analizu nekoliko važnijih morfofizioloških i produktivnih osobina spelte i obične meke pšenice ukaže na mogućnost gajenja ove ratarske vrste u organskom sistemu poljoprivrede, sa posebnim osvrtom na speltu, imajući u vidu njene agronomske, kvalitativne i nutricionističke osobine. Sorte su gajene u uslovima konverzije. Dobijeni rezultati su ukazali na mogućnost uspešnog gajenje spelte u uslovima bez primene mineralnih đubriva i samo uz upotrebu stajnjaka. Za potpunu ekonomsku i opravdanost gajenja spelte u sistemu konverzije odnosno organskom sistemu gajenja sa drugih aspekata (nutricionistički, medicinski) neophodno je sprovoditi dalja istraživanja.
