The aim of this investigation was to determine the differences in quality features of oats in the system of conventional and organic production. The tests were performed during 2005, 2006 and 2007 with fi ve oats populations, of which four were domestic, one population was introduced from Bulgaria and three oats varieties were introduced from Serbia. The quality of oats, especially the chemical composition of the grain in the tested genotypes, irrespective of years, varieties and climate conditions, and depending on the applied system of production was better when it was produced organically. In organic production, the absolute protein content was higher by 0.18% and the relative protein content by 1.4% than the protein content in conventional production. The absolute cellulose content was smaller by 0.69% and the relative cellulose content by 5.8% than the cellulose content in conventional production. In organic production, the absolute and relative content of no nitrogen extractive substances (B.E.M.) were higher by 0.82% and 1.5% respectively than in conventional production. For production expansion, the variety Lovkjen can be recommended as the most suitable variety, and the populations Trebenishta and Bulgaria in terms of quality for organic production. For conventional production the varieties Lovkjen and Rajac can be recommended in terms of quality. The system of organic production - a good method for the production of oats intended for processing for human consumption.
