Comparison of the quality of some Croatian and German wheat varieties according to the German standard protocol.

Ten Croatian and five German wheat varieties were tested. They were carried out using the German standard testing protocol. The results demonstrated that the quality of the Croatian wheat varieties could be ranged in A-C quality groups according to the German testing protocol. Croatian wheat varieties were comparable in many parameters (protein content, hardness, water absorption, dough handling properties and volume yield) with chosen German wheat varieties. Some differences were found in falling number, sedimentation value, flour yield, and ash value number.
