How is Rye Sown?
How Much Rye is Sown per 1 Dönüm?
Rye sowing is generally done by broadcasting or row sowing methods. However, row sowing using sowing equipment is the preferred method. Due to the low grain weight of rye, the sowing depth should be 2-3 cm. It is recommended to use 22-24 kg of seed per decare.
Does Rye Need Water?
Rye is an extremely cold-resistant grain and can be grown even in regions with very harsh winters. It is generally sown in the autumn and harvested in the early summer of the following year. Although its moisture requirement is low, since its root system development is strong, it can easily take sufficient water from the soil. This feature allows rye to be grown even in arid and low-precipitation regions. Therefore, rye needs irrigation, but its irrigation requirement is less compared to some other grains.
Fertilization in Rye Cultivation
The fertilizer requirement of rye is generally not high. This is because it makes the best use of residual nutrients in the soil. Especially during the jointing period, the uptake of primary nutrients by rye accelerates. Among cool-climate grains, the nitrogen requirement of rye is less than others. Therefore, excessive nitrogenous fertilizers should be avoided in the spring. Because too much nitrogen can lead to lodging in rye. Phosphorous fertilizers provide a significant yield increase in rye, and additional fertilization may not be necessary in fields where the preceding crop was fertilized. Generally, 4 kg of nitrogen and 4-6 kg of phosphorus can be given per decare. All of the phosphorus and 1/3 of the nitrogen are given with sowing, while the rest of the nitrogen is applied during the jointing period. This fertilization practice supports the healthy growth of rye and obtaining high yields.

Diseases and Pests Seen in Rye Cultivation
Ergot disease is the most important disease caused by the fungus Claviceps purpurea. This disease causes infection in the spikes and seeds of the rye plant and can lead to serious yield losses. Various measures can be taken to combat the disease. One of these is crop rotation. Rotation is an agricultural practice that involves planting different plant species or different varieties of the same plant species sequentially in the same field. This can reduce the spread and population of the disease.
Additionally, it is important to uproot and destroy diseased plants before they form spikes. This helps prevent the spread of disease-infected plants to the environment and their transmission to other plants. Collecting and destroying spikes is an effective method for controlling the spread of the disease. These measures can help control ergot disease and grow rye products healthily.
