Selected Qualitatives Parameters of Monofloral Honey from The Czech Republic
JURÁKOVÁ, Andrea
The theme of this thesis is a comparison of selected quality indicators of samples from single-flower honeys from the area of the Czech Republic and honeys from different retail chains. The theoretical part focuses on the characteristics of the individual kinds of honey and how different their composition is. There are described basic physical and chemical requirements for honey including sensory requirements which are specified in Regulation No.76/2003 Code. The practical part contains a physically-chemical analysis according to the Harmonized methods of European Honey and a sensory evaluation of selected single-flower honeys (honeydew, acacia, lime, sunflower and rape). There were analysed twenty samples of honey from Czech beekeepers and fifteen samples of honey bought in different retail chains in the Czech Republic. Subsequently, these parameters were monitored - water content and acidity. Next step was a test for evidence of disruption by starchy sugar and malt extracts. Then, sensory requirements such as colour, smell, taste and consistence were evaluated. The conclusion of the comparison of honey samples indicates that individual honey samples differed the most in the taste and smell criteria and in addition the samples were often disrupted by starchy sugar and malt extracts. The samples collected from the beekeepers from the area of the Czech Republic complied with Regulation No.76/2003 Code. On the contrary, the samples from the chosen retail chains in the Czech Republic weren't in accordance with the criteria specified in Regulation No.76/2003 Code.

Truck-gardening in system of ecological agriculture
JURÁKOVÁ, Andrea
In the organic farming system is farmed more consistent with nature. Careful handling with the environment, biodiversity, quality care of the soil, preference of renewable resources and recycling of materials are supported. This agricultural system is able to produce high quality food. This bachelor thesis is a literary review. Its aim is to show the different principles in the cultivation of vegetables in organic agriculture. The first part of this thesis is focused on organic farming and it includes the definition of basic concepts, description of the targets and principles of organic farming and its development in the Czech Republic, the European Union and the world. The second part of this thesis contains basic information, which relate to the principle of growing vegetables, their protection, quality control, certification, labeling and storage of vegetables in the organic farming system.
