Analysis of the conditions for organic and conventional farming
HOMOLKOVÁ, Monika
In the Czech Republic, the number of enviromentally oriented agricultural farms is continuosly increasing, particulary in less favoured areas. Objective of this Bachelor thesis is to identify and assess the conditions for different approaches to farming - conventional and organic - using a specific example of two farms in southern Bohemia. The farms ares separated approximately by 1.5km. Based on relevant sources, basic farming conditions for the two farms were identified and compared.Identical indicators were monitored at both farms (legislation, inspection system, conditions for granting subsidies, soil treatment, livestock breeding and care and produced products - food,organic food). The data was monitored over a period of two years 2009 and 2010.

Evaluation of production costs, revenues and quality of potato tuber in organic and conventional farming system
MALECHA, Pavel
In 2009, there was an experiment with strains of potatos conducted in the region of Soběslav, at an altitude of 614 m. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate production costs, revenues and internal tuber quality in terms of organic and conventional farming system. The work observed dry matter, starch, reducing sugar, chlorogenic acid, vitamin C, nitrates and solanine. An attempt was made on two different strains of potatoes which have different growing season (Impala - very early, Adela - early). Adela variant showed an average of 7.51 t / ha higher yield than the Impala. Higher costs per tonne of potato production were in the conventional way of cultivation. From the evaluation of the internal quality of tubers, there was an apparent influence of the strain and cultivation method on the content of controlled substances. The executed test showed the health of potatoes grown in an organic and conventional way.
