Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the influence of organic matter from different sources on the yield of winter wheat and macroelements content in it. The experiment was carried out in stoneware pots sank into the ground filled up with 56.4 kg of soil: Haplic Luvisols formed from loamy sand. The soil was slightly acidic. The soil was mixed up with liquid form of salts: Cd(NO3)2, Pb(CH3COO)2 and ZnSO4. To the soil a brown coal preparation, so called “Rekulter”, brown coal, peat and farmyard manure were applied in the amount of 180, 140, 390 and 630 g per pot, which is equivalent to 5 Mg of organic carbon per ha. Winter wheat Triticum aestivum ssp. vulgare (L.) for grain was cultivated. The manurial value of organic substance originated from different sources expressed as the plants' crop was the highest for Rekulter and the lowest for peat. The addition of organic substance to soil contaminated with heavy metals causes the higher content of potassium, magnesium and nitrogen in winter wheat's grain. The content of calcium and sodium in winter wheat grain's did not depend from addition of organic matter to soil. Organic matter added into contaminated soil increased the uptake of main macroelements by winter wheat straw. Organic matter fertilization broadened the K: (Ca + Mg) ratio in grain and straw.

Rode et al (1997) reported a significant improvement in milk production and milk fat content when the ration was supplemented at the start of lactation with hydroxy-analogue of methionine (HMB) (DL,2 hydroxy 4 (methyl thio) butanoic acid. This could be explained either by the fact that HMB in the liquid form, in a manner similar to the calcium salt of HMB is used by the rumen microorganisms, resulting in the stimulation of the rumen microflora or that the HMB supplies by-pass methionine analogue to the duodenum. The objective of the present trial was to measure the effects of HMB in the rumen using a rumen simulation technique and to test the effect of different sources of methionine on the digestibility of the organic matter of maize silage.Experiments were carried out using thein vitrorumen technique (Menke et al, 1988) (HFT). Different sources of methionine were tested : two sources of the hydroxy-analogue of methionine (HMB) : [A] AlimetTM(88,2%) (Novus Int Inc) and [B] RhodimetTMAT88 (88,9%) (Rhone Poulenc Animal Nutrition), [C] calcium salt of HMB (85,3%) [D] Rhodimet NP99 (99%) (DL methionine powder (RPAN)) [E] mineral sulphur in the form of sodium sulphate (99,5%).

Field studies were conducted over 4 yr to identify herbicides for selective control of downy brome in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and winter rye (Secale cereale L.). Cinmethylin, diclofop, and napropamide did not control downy brome in any year. BAY SMY 1500 applied pre-emergence or early postemergence at 1.5–2.0 kg ha−1 controlled downy brome and increased the yield of winter wheat. However, BAY SMY 1500 treatments often reduced the growth and yield of winter rye. Metribuzin applied early postemergence at 0.42 kg ha−1 effectively controlled downy brome and increased the yield of both winter wheat and winter rye. Metribuzin applied at 0.42–0.56 kg ha−1 pre-emergence on a coarse-textured soil with 2% organic matter injured winter wheat and reduced yield. Key words:Bromus tectorum L., cinmethylin, diclofop, BAY SMY 1500, metribuzin, napropamide
