Influence of fertilizer placement on yield and protein composition in spring malting barley

Johansson, E.; Haby, L.; Prieto-Linde, M. L.; Svensson, S. -E.

Abstract

To conclude, nitrogen rate correlated positively with amount of most protein types, while close placement/availability of nitrogen correlated with protein polymerisation. For grain yield, fertilizer placement just below the sown seeds was negative. Thus, placement of nitrogen might influence the quality of the barley grain for malting purposes.
