ASSESSMENT OF SELECTED PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF WHEAT AND RYE FROM THE NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN REGION OF POLAND

Abstract

The aim of the research was to determine physicochemical differences in winter wheat and rye varieties on the different Polish regions. The wheat samples, which were drawn directly from the trailers, came from agricultural holdings and grain elevators from various parts of the country. The samples were poured into plastic bags and analysed. The individual parameters for the samples of wheat and rye were determined as follows: moisture content was determined using NIR DA 7200 whole – grain analyser by Perten, test weight, falling number and odour. The research has shown that the moisture contents of individual samples do not differ substantially from each other. The wheat samples from northern Poland had the lowest average moisture value –12.6%. Differences in density of individual wheat samples differ from each other by over 4 kg/hl, whereas rye samples by over 3 kg/hl. Examined physicochemical properties in winter wheat and rye varieties coming from the northern and southern region of Poland met the requirements of the Polish norm. Having carried out a statistical analysis, no significant influence of cereal growing region on selected physicochemical properties of winter wheat and rye varieties has been proved.<br/><br/>
