Description

Organic Cereals – Spelt grains from Switzerland

Spelt is a very old cereal. Thanks to its robustness, consistency and undemanding nature, it is ideal for organic cultivation. It is considered particularly healthy and well tolerated by the body.

History

The origin of spelt is unique. European spelt is the only cereal originating in Western Europe, because the spelt, emmer and our wheat come from the Near and Middle East. Spelt and soft wheat belong to the same species, but spelt appeared later. It comes from the hybrid cross between wheat and emmer and kept the original biological properties of emmer when it was created. Spelt appears in Switzerland from 2300 BC. For several thousand years, spelt was the most important cereal in many countries. Around 1885, for example, spelt was the first winter cereal in Switzerland. Compared to wheat, spelt is more aromatic and easier to digest.

Botany

Spelt ( Triticum aestivum subsp. spelta) and wheat ( Triticum aestivum subsp. aestivum) belong to the same species, which is why they interbreed without problems. Wheat and spelt, unlike rye, are self-pollinating (autogamy is the mode of reproduction by union of gametes from the same species).

Culture

It prefers moderately heavy to heavy soils and is suitable for higher, rugged and rainy places. Cultivation takes place up to about 4600 feet altitude.

It contains “complete proteins”, especially if they are old varieties: it alone ensures the supply of all the essential amino acids for humans. However, the level of lysine remains generally very average although higher than that of wheat.
