Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Achieving high-quality durum wheat involves specific cultivation practices. Growing durum wheat without growth regulators and with moderate nitrogen fertilization (80 kg ha-1) yields the hardest grain and optimal flour quality.
Area Of Science
- Agronomy
- Plant Science
- Food Science
Background
- Durum wheat quality is influenced by cultivation methods.
- Optimizing agrotechnical measures is crucial for desirable grain characteristics.
Purpose Of The Study
- To determine the optimal cultivation system for producing high-hardness durum wheat grain.
- To identify cultivation parameters that enhance flour quality and reduce environmental impact.
Main Methods
- Investigated the effects of growth regulators, sowing density (350 seeds m-2), and nitrogen fertilization (80 kg ha-1) on durum wheat.
- Utilized correlation analysis to link cultivation practices with grain and flour quality parameters (FER, FPS, L*, b*).
Main Results
- The hardest grain was produced without growth regulators, at the lowest sowing density, and with 80 kg ha-1 nitrogen fertilization.
- Highest L* and b* values were observed in grain grown without any additional agrotechnical measures.
- Optimal flour quality (FER ≈ 64%, FPS ≈ 98%, L* ≈ 92) was achieved with specific cultivation strategies.
Conclusions
- Cultivating spring durum wheat without growth regulators and with 80 kg ha-1 nitrogen fertilization yields high-quality grain.
- This cultivation system offers potential cost reductions in durum wheat production.
- The identified methods can minimize contamination of the natural environment.

The workability of concrete is a critical characteristic that influences the ease of mixing, handling, and finishing the concrete. It is affected by several factors including water content, aggregate properties, and admixtures like air entrainment. Water plays a fundamental role as it lubricates the concrete mix, facilitating easier movement and placement. However, the water requirement varies depending on the texture and shape of aggregates. Finer particles and angular, rough-textured...
The fineness of cement directly influences the rate of hydration, as the hydration begins at the surface of the cement particles. In addition to hydration, the fineness of cement is vital for various properties of concrete including workability, gypsum requirement, and long-term behavior. The fineness of cement is represented in terms of the specific surface of cement which is typically measured in square meters per kilogram, with several methods available for this determination.

Crop cultivation has a long history in human civilization, with records showing the cultivation of cereal plants beginning at around 8000 BC. This early plant breeding was developed primarily to provide a steady supply of food.
As humans' understanding of genetics advanced, improved crop varieties could be achieved more quickly. Artificial selection could be more directed, and crop varieties enhanced for favorable traits more quickly to produce better, more robust, or more palatable...
