abstract: An experiment with tillage systems for spring wheat cv. Koksa was conducted at the Agricultural Experimental Station of Uhrusk. It was set up in the split-plots design with three replications, on plots of 24 m2. The grey-brown rendzina soil, formed from light loam, weak sandy, was classified in the very good rye-type soil utility complex. Two factors were taken under consideration: tillage system (i.e., ploughing tillage or plougless tillage – only cultivator or only herbicide after harvest) and doses of nitrogen (90 or 150 kg ha-1). Ploughing tillage increased the content of total protein, wet gluten and the test weight in relation to no-tillage system. Long doses of nitrogen (150 kg ha-1) increased total protein, content of wet gluten and grain uniformity in relation to lower dose (90 kg ha-1).
