International field trials were performed in Praha -Ruzyne (luvisol), Ivanovice na Hane (degraded chernozem) and at Lukavec u Pacova (cambisol) to study the contributions of the site, year, gradated nitrogen application rates and different organic fertilization of the forecrop to the grain yield in winter wheat and winter barley in 1985-1988. The investigated factors ranked as follows, as to their contributions to yield variability : 1. site (46.6), 2. nitrogen rates (39.5), 3. year (9.9), 4. the subsequent effect of different applications of organic fertilizer (4.0 per cent); in the yields of winter barley the factors ranked as follows: 1. year (47.5), 2. nitrogen rate (36.6), 3. site (15.3) and 4. subsequent effect of application of organic fertilizer (0.6 per cent). 120 kg of nitrogen (p.n.) per ha was a sufficient amount to reach to maximum yields of both cereal species. The highest yield increment ascribable to nitrogen fertilization were recorded in less fertile brown soils at Lukavec u Pacova. The different types of organic manure applied to the forecrop had a significant effect on the yields of investigated subsequent crops (cereals) only in the case of winter wheat. On luvisols in Praha-Ruzyne, the yields of both cereals were statistically significantly higher than on the degraded chernozem at Ivanovice na Hane or on the cambisol at Lukavec u Pacova.
