RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SUCCESSFUL CULTIVATION

Production target
High grain yields with the best einkorn baking quality and an intense flavour while having a low cultivation input.
Crop rotationComparable to spelt wheat with regard to crop rotation; ripening approx. 1-2 weeks later than wheat; positive experience with regard to cultivation after grain maize.
Sowing timeFrom the end of September to mid-October
SeedingSowing rate:

October early: 330 - 380 germinable spikelets/m² (appr. 140 - 160 kg/ha)

October late: 380 - 430 germinable spikelets/m² (appr. 160 - 180 kg/ha)

March early: 350 - 400 germinable spikelets/m² (appr. 150 - 170 kg/ha)

March late: 420 - 460 germinable spikelets/m² (appr. 180 - 200 kg/ha)

Sowing in spring is only recommended when the water supply is not critical. Increasing the sowing rate by ca. 10 % on the basis of organic production methods (e.g. harrowing) should be carried out at own discretion.
Weed control
Blind harrowing in autumn is recommended, in order to get weed pressure under control that was built up due to a very slow youth development. From leaf stage 3 on, harrowing is possible again.
