1.) Spelt
Since 2003 we have been dealing with its growing with alternating success and with growing experiences. The spelt is one of my favourite plants because its growing is easy, and at the same time it guarantees convenient income. The spelt is an ancient cereal, that adapts itself to the environmental impacts, has little needs, tolerates well the inland water; it tillers well, it overwhelms the furrow-weeds and its crop is one keystone of the modern healthy diet. Furthermore, its chuff is also used for various purposes, for example as the filling material for pillows.
Based on the current average yield, I am able to say that the 4t/ha yield is achievable, if we observe some important technological elements and don’t make a big mistake. On an average, we achieve the results between 4-5 t/h, but our top yield was 6.6 t/h after pea forecrop. What is important is the good seed-bed, because the spelt comes up a bit heavier than winter wheat. If the stand is strong, the mildew may cause problem in spring, but fortunately there are approved products that provide defence. The greatest danger is the milk ripening – during the green ripening occuring infestation by aphids, the invasion might get such heights that we might incur not only qualitative but also quantitative loss. In most cases, the yellow plum aphid settle in and its destruction makes mostly quality problems, namely in relation to the gluten and crude protein content. But the turd of aphids is good breeding-ground for fungi and that makes new problems. The aphid is the first public enemy. Fortunately, there are some products lately, that may even under ecological circumstances provide successful defence, such as the aqueous solution of green soap (of course it had also previously existed, but nowadays one extracted a format that can get out well, the sprinkling was difficult with green soup previously). The harvest of the spelt is easy, one should pay attention that we have to break the ear axis into spikelets, but we shouldn’t decorticate the grains. Highly important – the success of the growing might depend on it – that the mature spelt shouldn’t be wet. The wet grains grow easily in the chaff and an important value of the bakery industry, the number of cases drops, and the product will be unsaleable. Therefore, the sooner you begin the harvest, the shorter time the spelt spends outdoors.
