Laudis 550 was used as the experimental variety of spring barley and the objective of the experiment was to observe the increasing amount of nitrogen and its effect on the resulting quantity and quality. The experimental amounts of nitrogen were set to 60 kg.ha-1, 75 kg.ha-1, 90 kg.ha-1, 105 kg.ha-1 and 120 kg.ha-1. With the increasing amount of nitrogen the crop increased of 0,2 - 0,4 t.ha-1.
