Maintaining wheat quality in the context of climate change is a crucial challenge for ensuring food security and the economic value of agricultural production. In a difficult economic environment, farmers often tend toward cerealdominated crop rotations, which increases the risk of yield and quality decline, particularly due to the unfavorable effect of preceding crops. The study comparatively evaluates the effect of conventional tillage and no-tillage on the yield and quality of winter wheat grains cultivated in a four-crop rotation, with soybeans, maize and winter rapeseed as preceding
crops. The parameters analyzed include yield, crude fiber content, ash content, starch content, total fat, crude fiber and crude protein (both expressed on a dry matter basis), and moisture. The results confirm the clear influence of the preceding crop type and soil tillage system on wheat yield and quality, emphasizing the importance of choosing appropriate technologies to optimize crop performance, promote agricultural sustainability, and increase the competitiveness of the cereal sector.
