PATTERNS OF FORMATION OF THE PRODUCTIVE POTENTIAL OF QUALITY WINTER WHEAT GRAIN DEPENDING ON THE VARIETY

Abstract

Today, winter wheat is the main food crop in Ukraine and it occupies about 50 % of the grain balance of the country. Food security, national wealth and economic well-being of the population largely depend on the stability of its grain production. The study and selection of the most productive varieties that produce high grain yields and quality in a particular region will help to ensure sustainable crop yields every year. All these factors determine the relevance of the chosen topic for the research. During the field experiments (2022-2023), the appropriate methods (methods of experimental agronomy) and recommendations were used. The material for the research was 14 varieties of soft winter wheat: ʼAveniuʼ, ʼBohdanaʼ, ʼBohemiaʼ, ʼHorodnytsiaʼ, ʼDumaʼ ʼOdeskaʼ, ʼKubusʼ, ʼLytanivkaʼ, ʼNatalk
