Spelt is an excellent choice for organic farming due to better enduring worse agroecological conditions than wheat. This research on the the family farm "Klica" in Ernestinovo in the season 2014/2015 is an extension of the research of this culture (the cultivar "Frankenkorn") of the previous season in the agroecological conditions of eastern Slavonia on the same family farm. The average grain yield was 3.71 t ha-1, which is 1.08 t ha-1 more than the previous season. Realized revenues of HRK 10,419.92 ha-1 are also higher than in the previous season.
