ANALYSIS OF THE COMPOSITION OF ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS IN THE PRODUCTS OF THE MAIN AGRICULTURAL CROPS

Abstract

A five-year investigation of amino acid composition of grain shows that concerning the content of essential amino acids winter and spring cereals can be ranked in descending order: bare-grained oats (42.36 g/kg) > barley (33.74) > millet (30.54) > spring wheat (30.03) > winter wheat (28.72) > maize (28.66) > winter triticale (26.92) > buckwheat (25.98) > oats (25.89) > winter rye (24.81) > spring triticale (24.33 g/kg). It is established, that under the current productivity of cereals in the republic for the last 5 years the output of essential amino acids from 1 hectare can differ up to 1,7 times. On the total structure of essential amino acids the green mass of maize is considerably inferior to the nutritional value of clover (2.1 times) and lupine (2.6 times).
