Crop Production

Poledelstvo Erdzelija’s work is based  on the use of modern technology and extensive experience in the field of crop production. In addition to the latest innovative technology, Erdzelija has a complete logistic support for post-harvesting activities, consisting of 2 hangars, one closed and one open, 6 warehouses for purchase of cereals and industrial crops, seeds and spare parts for its equipment as well as adequate mechanization for manipulation.

Wheat is the world’s leading source of energy, protein and fiber. The quality of the wheat can be divided into three main groups of botanical (different types and varieties), physical and chemical characteristics. Poledelstvo Erdzelija cultivates – -types of wheat with an annual yield of -% of the total crop production.

Corn is an increasingly important resource in crop production because it is used more and more in addition to human consumption, as well as processing as a raw material in the industry and feeding domestic animals. As a cereal, corn is best managed in lowlands and valleys where there is enough moisture and heat, its quality is determined by hybrid selection, different harvest practices and drying practices. Poledelstvo Erdzelija cultivates – types of corn with an annual yield of -% of the total crop production.

Barley is one of the oldest cereals, that contains a lot of nutrients and thus represents one of the most important cereals. Barley production is multistage, which means barley beans are used to produce bread, beer, and fodder. There are three types of barley: two-sided (for beer production), multicore, and transitional. In its production Poledelstvo Erdzelija cultivates two types of barley: spring and autumn barley. Spring barley is primarily used for the production of — fodder, where even % are targeted at a business unit – animal husbandry. A significant percentage,%, is used for cooling and baking. The Autumn Barley represents% of the total crop production, where% are targeted to the livestock sector.

Besides the production of cereals, Erdzelija also produces industrial crops, which are mostly used for feeding their livestock. Sunflower, triticale, soy and alfalfa are produced as industrial crops.

The large warehouse space enables Poledelstvo Erdzelija to meet the needs of animal feed at national levels in times when small individual facilities are emptied. This management of the farm’s storage capacities makes it possible to use the high prices during a limited supply of fodder and to achieve good business results accordingly.
