This WP deals with agronomy issues to improve baking quality, nutritional value and mitigate mycotoxin contamination. It involves field experiments on soil tillage and nitrogen management (fertilization, intercropping with legumes and green manuring). Wheat grain yield and grain protein content are determined in field experiments. The impact of the different treatments on weeds and disease pressure at flowering and at wheat maturity is also evaluated during the crop cycle. Soil fertility is particularly evaluated in WP2.1. Further analyses on protein composition and others quality indicators are determined (WP3 and 4) to express baking quality and nutritional value.
