For judging the of non-traditional technology we choosed a technique which did not need any additional investment costs. This technique used machinery for harvesting stemmed materials. We compared two variants: one with mowing and second with pulling. For deseeding we used combine harvester with picking adapter. Stems were two times turned during retting and on the end pressed to big square bales. The gained wirr-straw was processed on the tow processing line. Mowing offered the better variant. The retted straw yield was lower (4.11 %) and the seed yield was higher (25.52 %) in compare with the variant of pulling. The harvest costs of the mowing variant are 4995 CZK per ha while the costs of the pulling method were higher (5941 CZK per ha) and the average costs of the traditional harvest technology were 6809 per ha. In our opinion the non-traditional harvesting technology should be used in case of flax being of lower quality or damaged.
