Starch content in selected set of winter wheat varieties was studied. Wheat varieties cultivated at various intensity, i.e. without fertilizers and pesticides, with fertilization of 96 kg N, 60 kg P2O5, 60 kg K2O per 1 ha were analyzed, seed was treated and herbicide was applied. At higher intensity fungicide, insecticide and growth regulator were applied in addition. In most of trials the varieties Samanta, Siria, Astella, Saskia, Torysa, Trane, Versailles and Estica had higher starch content. The prerequisite has been thus confirmed that it would be possible to cultivate wheat for starch production purposes in the so-called marginal regions. All varieties in which higher starch content was recorded are recommended for growing in these regions and offer here high yields.
