Abstract. In the years 2008-2010 an field experiment was carried out, whose aim was
determination of reaction of spring wheat to diversified sowing rates of: 350, 450, 550,
650, and 750 grains·m-2. The experiment was carried out on soil of bonitation class IIIa.
As expected, together with the increase of the sowing density, plant density also increased
as well as ear density per area unit. It was also observed that the applied sowing rates
significantly modified the grain number per ear as well as the weight of 1000 seeds. With
the sowing rate of 650 grains per m2, the grain yield was 7.26 t·ha-1 and was significantly
higher compared with the yield from plots where the sowing rates were as follows: 350,
450 and 750 grains per m2. Uniformity and plumpness of the grain were 88.14%.
Key words: cultivation effectiveness, grain plumpness, grain uniformity, sowing density,

INTRODUCTION
Sowing rate is one of the most important elements of agricultural techniques of
spring wheat determining the basic yield-forming element, which is the number of ears
per area unit. Kuś and Jończyk [2003] as well as Leszczyńska et al. [2007] state that
a vast majority of spring wheat cultivars require sowing of approximately 450 grains per
m2, which results, among others, from its poor tillering. However, they emphasize that
this norm depends on the habitat-agrotechnical conditions. Increasing the sowing rate is
justified e.g. on a poorer soil or with delayed sowing. According to Sułek [2001],
Wesołowski and Kwiatkowski [2004], denser sowing favorably affects some parameters
of spring wheat and increases its yield. Wesołowski et al. [2003], Kapeluszny [2002,
2004], Olsen et al. [2006] and Haliniarz [2010] additionally indicate that increase of the
sowing norm partly reduces weed infestation of the stand. Chrzanowska-Drożdż and
Kaczmarek [2006], the highest level of spring wheat yield obtained however with low
rates of sowing: 300 and 400 grains per m2. Leszczyńska et al. [2007] found that high
sowing density does not affect the increase of the grain yield in basic cereals because

their tillering decreases, as well as productivity of a single ear, and infection occurrence
increases as well as the degree of lodging, especially at a higher level of nitrogen
fertilization. In the case of a low sowing density, with minor plant losses, however,
productive tillering increased, as there occurred the phenomenon of self-control of stand
density. Sułek and Mazurek [2001] as well as Sułek [2004], on the basis of their own
research, prove the necessity of dividing spring wheat cultivars into ones requiring
sparser and denser sowing. Similarly, Podolska [1997], separated two groups of spring
wheat cultivars which reacted differently to sowing rates.
The aim of the research was determination of reaction of spring wheat to diversified
sowing density: 350, 450, 550, 650, and 750 grains·m-2. The research hypothesis
assumed that cultivar Parabola would require concentrated sowing. Choice of cultivar
was dictated by the fact that it is recommended for cultivation in Podkarpackie
Voivodeship by the Research Centre for Cultivar Testing.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Field experiments with spring wheat cv. Parabola were carried out in the years 2008-2010 at an Experimental Station of the Faculty of Biology and Agriculture of the
University of Rzeszow in Krasne near Rzeszow (50°03’ N; 22°06’ E). The experiment
was set on soil of bonitation class IIIa, of pH in the range from 5.10 (2009) to 5.94
(2010). The content of phosphorus, potassium and microelements determined in soil
was average, however the magnesium content was very low (Table 1). The analysis of
soil samples was carried out at the Regional Chemical-Agricultural Station in Rzeszow.

It was a single-factor experiment, conducted in four replications. The studied factor
was the diversified sowing density of: 350, 450, 550, 650, and 750 grains·m-2. The row
spacing was 12 cm, and the depth of sowing 3 cm. The sowing was conducted on the
following dates: 11 April 2008, 09 April 2009, 13 April 2010. The forecrop every year
was spring rape. Plot area was 15 m2 (for harvest 12 m2). P-K fertilization applied under
autumn ploughing was: 43.6 kg P·ha-1 and 116.2 kg K·ha-1. Nitrogen fertilization (34%
ammonium saltpeter) was applied on two dates: 60 kg N·ha-1 before sowing and 60 kg
N·ha-1 at the stage of shooting. During growth, Chwastox Extra 300 SL was used for
weed control, Alfamor 050 SC for pest control, while Alert 375 SC was used for disease
control.
In the growing period of wheat, observations were carried out of the growth and
plant development. They included: emergence, tillering, shooting, earing, maturation.
On the area of 1 m2 plant density was calculated at the stage of full emergence as well

as the number of ears before harvest. The number of plants before harvest was
calculated by pulling up the plants from the area of 0.5 m2. Based on the obtained
results, the coefficient of productive tillering was calculated (ear number divided by the
plant number per m2). Lodging evaluation has been given in the range from 1 to 9° at
the stage of tillering.
At the stage of technical maturity, 20 representative plants were collected from each
plot and the yield components were determined: grain number per ear and weight of one
thousand grains (with 15% moisture). The division of grains into fractions was
conducted on the K-type Sortimat laboratory separator. A single sample was 100 g,
grain moisture 14.5%, and the time of shaking 3 minutes. The measurement was carried
out on sieves with openings of diameters of: 2.2, 2.5 and 2.8 mm.
The harvest was conducted in a single-stage on: 6 August 2008, 5 August 2009 and
5 August 2010. Grain yield from plots was calculated per 1 ha with 15% moisture.
Obtained results were subjected to statistical analysis: analysis of variance
(according to split-plot design). Significance of differences between trait values were
tested based on the Tukey’s honestly significant difference test, with the significance
level of P = 0.05. Statistical program ANALWAR 5FR was used for calculations.
In the final stage of study, simplified economical results of spring wheat cultivation
were calculated with a diversified sowing density. They included only the cost of the
seed material. The prices were taken from the source data of Podkarpackie Agricultural
Advisory Centre in Boguchwała.
In the years of research, weather conditions (Table 2) had a modifying effect on the
growth and development of plants. First of all, the rainfall total was unstable. In the
period between April and August, it was 410.4 mm in 2008, 372.5 mm in 2009 and
651.8 mm in 2010. Average monthly air temperatures were less diversified. Weather
conditions are given according to Agrometeorological Reports of the Institute of
Meteorology and Water Management (IMiGW) in Warsaw, from the reports of the
Meteorological Station in Jasionka near Rzeszow.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The duration of particular development stages was diversified within years. Full
emergence was observed after 11-15 days since the date of sowing. The stage of
tillering occurred after 30-37 days, stage of shooting after 45-52 days and earing after
62-70 days since the date of sowing (Table 3). Applied sowing rates did not modify the

duration of development stages of plants. The shortest growing period was observed in
2010 (114 days),while the longest in 2009 (118 days).

As expected, increase in the rates of sowing increased plant density and ear number
per area unit, while it decreased the coefficient of productive tillering (Table 4). Similar
results in this field were obtained also by other authors [Sułek and Mazurek 2001,
Nieróbca 2004, Wesołowski and Kwiatkowski 2004, Chrzanowska-Drożdż and
Kaczmarek 2006]. Canopy lodging was the highest with the sowing density of 750
grains·m-2.

Increase in the rate of sowing resulted in the decrease of grain number per ear. The
greatest significant difference of the discussed parameter was obtained between variants
of the lowest and the highest sowing density, and it was over 22% (Table 5). Sułek and
Mazurek [2001] also proved that the increase of plant density of spring wheat decreases
ear productivity, and in most cultivars it concerns mainly the grain number per ear.
Weight of one thousand grains in the conducted experiment was on average 38.1 g.
Diversification of sowing density had a significant effect on the grain plumpness, which
was statistically confirmed (Table 5). Obtained results were similar to the research of
Chrzanowska-Drożdż and Kaczmarek [2006]. According to the mentioned authors,
weight of 1000 grains decreases with the increase of the sowing density.

Grain yield was significantly higher after sowing 650 grains·m-2 compared with the
yields obtained from plots where the sowing density was: 350, 450 and 750 grains·m-2
(Table 6). Obtained difference was approximately 5%. Chrzanowska-Drożdż and
Kaczmarek [2006] indicate however a different reaction of spring wheat (cultivars Żura
and Napola) to diversification of the sowing rates. These authors found that
concentrated sowing of 600 grains·m2 compared with the mean density of 400 grains·m2
caused a significant decrease in the yield by 0.29 t·ha-1.

According to Mazurek and Sułek [1996], sowing density of spring wheat on soil of
the very good complex should be approximately 400 grains·m-2, and on other soils from
500 to 600 grains·m-2. In the research of Wesołowski and Kwiatkowski [2004], the
highest grain yield was obtained after sowing 550 grains·m-2. Sułek and Mazurek
[2001], Sułek [2004] as well as Leszczyńska [2007], found that a rational sowing rate
depends on the species and cultivar of cereal, as well as on a wide variety of habitat-agrotechnical factors.
Increase in the sowing rate resulted in the increase of costs of the seed material.
After calculating the difference between the yield value on particular plots and the costs
of the certified seed material, it was found that sowing of 350 and 650 grains·m-2 allows
to obtain a favorable economical effect. Sowing of 750 grains·m-2 however, is
financially unjustified (Table 7).

Obtained grain fractions were not significantly modified by the studied factor (Table
8). Proportion of grains of diameter equal to 2.80 mm and greater, as well as of the
diameter from 2.50 to 2.79 mm, were 57.82% and 30.32%, respectively. Thus,
uniformity and plumpness of grain were 88.14%. The finest grains, screened by the
sieve with the diameter of openings 2.20 mm, constituted only 1.74%. In the research of
Cacak-Pietrzak et al. [2005], grain plumpness of spring wheat cultivars was lower than
uniformity. Mentioned authors obtained plumpness similar to uniformity only in two
winter wheat cultivars, Kobra and Zorza.

CONCLUSIONS
1. Diversification of the sowing rate in the range from 350 to 750 grains·m-2 had no
effect on the course of development stages and duration of the growing period of spring
wheat.
2. Increase in the sowing density resulted in the increase of the ear number per m2,
and the significant decrease of the grain number per ear and the weight of 1000 grains.
3. The highest grain yield was obtained when sowing 650 grains·m-2. Significantly
lower grain yield was obtained on plots with sowing rates of: 350, 450 and 750
grains·m-2.

ilości wysiewu nasion istotnie zmodyfikowały liczbę ziaren w kłosie oraz MTN. Przy
ilości wysiewu 650 nasion na m2 plon ziarna wyniósł 7,26 t·ha-1 i był istotnie większy
w porównaniu z plonem z poletek, na których wysiano: 350, 450 i 750 nasion na m2.
Wyrównanie i celność ziarna wyniosły 88,14%.
Słowa kluczowe: celność ziarna, efektywność uprawy, gęstość siewu, komponenty plonu,
wyrównanie ziarna
