The problem of economical use of energy resources and their production from the renewable is topical all over the world. For the production of bioethanol there are mostly technologies used, where products, containing sugars and starch, are being processed. Under the conditions of Latvia the most appropriate cereals for the production of bioethanol could be cereals with high starch content and low protein content, which are less useful for food. The research objective is to evaluate the suitability of several varieties of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), triticale (Triticosecale Wittm) and rye (Secale cereale L.) for the bio-ethanol production in Latvia. During the research, carried out at State Stende Cereals Breeding Institute in growing seasons 2009/2010 and 2010/2011, on average the highest yield of bioethanol (L haE-1) was provided by cereals, which represented the highest starch content in grain and yield: winter wheat and triticale.
