The fertilization with nitrogen plays a crucial role in today's agriculture characteristic with a high demand for production. The utilization of coated fertilizers represents a possible option to lower the number of applications, lower the dose and limit the risk of environmental losses. The effect of conventional calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) applied in a single application in blend (1:1 or 1:2) with oil-based polymer coated CAN in thicknesses of 4 (cCAN4) or 6% (cCAN6) by weight of the fertilizer on the yield and quality of winter wheat and oilseed rape was evaluate. The average yields of winter wheat were not significantly influenced by the examined fertilization in either the growing season (GS) or the experimental site. On the contrary, the qualitative parameters on average resulted in lower values in comparison with the control (split N fertilization), possibly due to the single application of nitrogen in early spring. The examined treatments significantly influenced the seed yield of oilseed rape in both GS and both experimental sites. On average, the highest yield of seed (2.8 t/ha) was observed on treatment cCAN4 in a 1:2 ratio. This represents a significant increase by 24.8% compared to the control (2.2 t/ha). Similarly, to winter wheat, the qualitative parameter of oilseed rape (oil content) was lower after the examined blends with coated CAN. The fertilization of oilseed rape with blends of uncoated and coated CAN applied in the single application is a validate alternative to commonly used split nitrogen doses applied repeatedly during vegetation.
