abstract: An experiment with crop rotation systems for hard wheat cv. Lloyd was conducted at the Agricultural Experimental Station of Uhrusk. It was set up in the split-plots design with four replications, on plots of 20 m2. The grey-brown rendzina soil, formed from light loam, weak sandy, was classified in the very good rye-type soil utility complex. The experiment concerned four crop rotations with varying proportions of hard wheat (25, 50, 75, 100%). Hard wheat cultivation in monoculture decreased the yield of grain, content of wet gluten in grain, test weight, grain uniform-ity and increased total ash in relation to the crop rotations with 25-75% of wheat.
