- Observation Copper deficiency in the soil was more pronounced in the deeper layers.
- Intervention effect A 0.3 kg ha-1 copper dose significantly increased crude protein content compared with the untreated control.
- Intervention effect A 0.5 kg ha-1 copper dose significantly increased wet gluten content compared with the untreated control.
- Intervention effect The highest values for yield, crude protein and wet gluten were achieved with the 2 kg ha-1 copper dose.
- Intervention effect The 2 kg ha-1 copper dose increased yield by 1.03 t ha-1 relative to the control.
- Intervention effect The 2 kg ha-1 copper dose increased crude protein by 0.9% relative to the control.
- Intervention effect The 2 kg ha-1 copper dose increased wet gluten by 2.3% relative to the control.
- Observation In 2019, DON toxin concentrations in control plots exceeded the regulatory safety threshold after fungal infections.
- Intervention effect Copper-sucrose complex application lowered DON levels below the regulatory threshold, a measurable protective effect.
