Soft wheat varieties belong to varieties of annual herbaceous plants. The most common grass family, and grasses. The very first copies of soft wheat were found thousands of years ago the territory of today's Turkey. In our days of this cereal doing mostly baked goods, though there are other ways to use this agricultural product. The conditions in which to grow soft wheat, does not have high requirements to the climate, so it is quite common in Russia.

Description of the plant

soft wheat

The height of the wheat is 100 cm, while the average rate in the range of 60-80 cm In the early stages of the nodes of the plant bare or pubescent, and straw inside the hollow and thin. The leaves reach a width of 16 mm, in the growth process gaining hardness. In fact, the ears of wheat gave rise to its name – their soft texture is not brittle, but is characterized by elasticity. In the joints of the stalks of the second row with the Central axis there are no bundles.

On the top of the inflorescence intervals from the neighboring spikelets, on average, to 7 mm. At the same time, the ears have almost equal parameters for height and width. Scales, encloses ears of wheat, is in length about 10 mm, while having a sharp keel at the end. It's a short prong that is addressed on the outside – a kind of protective device for the plant.

Where it is cultivated?

In the list of most well-known grain crops this kind of holds the record for the world's occupied square. Such proliferation contributed undemanding to soil and climatic conditions in which it can be grown culture. However, some varieties do have some limitations. For example, summer wheat develops optimally in terms of from 25 to 40°. This so-called wheat regions dominated by agricultural areas with a favorable climate.

If to speak about concrete territories, it will be Europe and Australia. In the case of the European regions it is possible to speak about growing in steppe and forest-steppe zones. Australian farmers are also guided by the organization of the wheat fields on the steppe spaces. This widespread culture in North and South America, where it is cultivated in the prairies and the pampas. Not deprive the attention this plant and Russian farmers. This is evidenced by the yield of wheat, which averages about 26-28 kg/ha per season.

Basic classification of wheat

durum wheat

The Main quality of wheat lies in the ability to form gluten. It is from this properties depend on the characteristics of bakery products. Wheat after primary treatment is sent to the manufacturer of macaroni products, cereals and starch. To determine the suitability of the crop for different purposes have been introduced, the main classification of wheat based on protein content and gluten, as well as its quality. In the aggregate quality of the model structure, and the presence of impurities soft wheat are divided into five categories. In the indicators of gluten still in the lead durum wheat, but its cultivation requires compliance with more stringent agro-climatic conditions, and this is possible far not in all regions.

Quality Classification of flour

Determining the strength of flour is made on the basis of two key indicators – in enzyme activity and gluten quality. There are three classes, which differ according to the overall data properties. First class is strong wheat, which is characterized by high protein content, elastic and elastic gluten and severe vitreous. Flour produced from such grain, is porous and voluminous bread. Like durum wheat, that basis for bakery products can improve the weak grain. The second group is represented by the average power of the seeds that just can't be a weak modifier of wheat, but have optimal qualities for the manufacture of bakery products. The third category – weak wheat, having the low baking qualities. Produced from a small volume of bread products, which differ in coarse porosity. In a soft, weak wheat, as a rule, there is a minimal amount of gluten and protein. This flour is used for the manufacture of confectionery.

Farming

In Russia it is cultivated and winter and spring wheat. The share of soft wheat accounts for about 95%. About 45% of this part is winter wheat, which is grown mainly in the southern and Central regions. These varieties succeed better, because they have resistance to frost. They are able to withstand up to -35 degrees. However, snowless winter so destructive to wheat.

For all classes is of great importance to the fertility and humidity of the soil cover. Winter crops require sufficient moisture in the process of germination. With the drought they are doing better than spring wheat. As supplements are used liming –as a rule, this method of fertilisation is applied on soils with high acidity. As for the timing of seeding the winter wheat by the time the frosts have to rockustics – it is guided by experienced agronomists. In drought conditions also practiced rolling. In the spring in the soil making urea and nitrate, but only if the land is depleted of nitrogen.

Milling properties of wheat

summer wheat

The grinding Process requires connection of special machines, spending in the course of working a certain amount of energy. Depending on the effort, is determined by the milling value of the grain. Its conclusions on the basis of several qualities, among which the time of grinding, fineness, energy consumption etc. are Also taken into account, and indirect characteristics, including uniformity, nature and ash content. Nature – is a measure of the mass of the volume of grain that can be expressed by the liter. The smaller the value, the lower the amount of flour. Soft wheat is characterized by a uniformity that, in essence, means grain parameters. The average grain size of the correct form contribute to a more effective and efficient grinding.

Nutritional properties of the grain

Wheat spikelets contain many useful elements, including fats, proteins, carbohydrates and minerals. Especially nutritious gluten, the contents of which differ the most valuable varieties of wheat. This rubber-like mass produced from melkorazmernyh beans. The technological process provides for the washing of the water, thereby providing a high concentration of protein components in the form glutenin and gliadin. In addition, soft wheat in processed form may contain starch, fiber and fat in small quantities. The share of protein items account for 80 % and the starch is about 20 % of gluten.

Usage

winter wheat

Most of this wheat is used as a cereal to obtain bakery products. Also from this culture produce malt, which is known as wheat beer. Find use and by-products – for example, after threshing remain bran, which can be used in feeding cattle. Applied soft wheat varieties and for industrial production of starch and bioethanol. However, these industries are not paramount, from the point of view of the use of wheat raw materials. At least, there are many cereals that are more common in areas of industrial production. Wheat is more focused on the food segment.

Conclusion

wheat yield

The Wide distribution of wheat contributed to its simplicity to the climatic conditions and the optimum milling properties, allowing the recycling process to obtain high-quality bakery products. In this respect, soft wheat is the best raw materials for the food industry. The current practice of agriculture to the fore it brought spring varieties most suitable for cultivation in the Russian climate. But winter crops occupy a considerable share in the total cultivated land. This wheat suitable for cultivation in less favourable conditions, so it is used mostly in the Northern regions of the country.
