Current state of fruit distillate production, particularly from apples in Ukraine

more than with a single application of nitrogen fertilizer.The grain of the Ajax winter triticale formed 19.8 to 23.0% gluten.Over three years, gluten content increased by 11% with the Background + N 120 treatment compared to the control.In the Background + N 60 S 35 + N 60 treatment, gluten content increased by 5% compared to a single nitrogen application.It is important to note that phosphorus and potassium fertilizers had the least impact on gluten content.Gluten content in the grain of the LP 154 winter triticale line was 7-9% higher compared to the Ajax variety.At the same time, the effectiveness of different fertilizer types and the influence of weather conditions were similar to those for the Ajax variety.Conclusions.Under the conditions of the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine, the studied winter triticale cultivars demonstrate high productivity.The highest yield efficiency was observed with the one-time application of N 120 on the background of P 60 K 60 .It is worth noting that nitrogen fertilizers can be applied temporarily within the winter triticale fertilization system.Regarding protein content, the LP 154 line is superior when grown under conditions favorable for high nitrogen compound synthesis.In less favorable years, the protein content in the four-species triticale line is at the level of classical varieties.Additionally, the effectiveness of sulfur-containing fertilizers also varies depending on weather conditions during the growing season.
