It is noticeable the slight increase in the quantity of KG seed produced in this period, with wheat and triticale stagnation. For barley, oats and rye are achieved signifcantly better results in the production and sale of seed. Based on the share of KG varieties in the structure of sowing it is undisputed that KG Center contributed signifcantly to the improvement of biodiversity in the area of small grains, which especially was noticeable in barley, triticale, oats and rye.
