Summary
Hypotesen är att lokalanpassade sorter kan ha bättre förutsättningar än konventionella sorter när det gäller ogräskonkurrens och motståndskraft mot sjukdomar. I projektet arbetar forskare tillsammans med ekologiska odlare för att välja ut de sorter som passar bäst för en region. Sorterna ska förutom goda odlingsegenskaper också ha bra bakningsförmåga och goda egenskaper när det gäller kvalitet och smak. Fram till tidigt 1960-tal hade växt- förädlingen ungefär samma förutsättningar som ekologisk odling har i dag, dvs. liten insats av gödselmedel och inga växtskyddsmedel. Man screenar detta tidiga sortmaterial, men jämför också med moderna sorter med attraktiva egenskaper.
Additional Summary
The hypothesis is that locally adapted varieties have better chances than conventional varieties as regards competition with weeds and resistance to diseases. The project works together with organic farmers to select the varieties that are best suited for a region. Apart from good growing properties, these varieties shall also have good baking quality and good properties regarding quality and flavour. Up to the early 1960s, plant breeding had about the same conditions as organic farming today, i.e. low input of fertilizers and no plant protection agents. This early variety material is screened, but a comparison is also made with modern varieties with attractive characteristics.
