Spring wheat is one of the most important food grain crops. Hard spring wheat is used to produce cereals, pasta and vermicelli. The grain of this crop contains a lot of protein (14-16%soft, 15-18% hard) and gluten-28-40%.
This crop is grown mainly in the following regions: the Volga region, the Southern Urals, Western and Eastern Siberia. Average yields are obtained here due to lack of moisture, but the grain contains a lot of protein and gluten. When growing it in the Non-Chernozem zone, higher yields are obtained, but the quantity and quality of gluten is usually lower. In those regions (the North Caucasus, the Central Asian Republic) where winter wheat yields higher yields, spring wheat is considered one of the insurance products in case of its re-sowing in case of poor wintering.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
