The application of nitrogen fertilizers in the correct dose is fundamental to increasing the yield and quality of winter wheat in the Non-Chernozem Zone of Central Russia. The nutrient-deficient soils in this region justify the use of nitrogen fertilizers. The aim of our study was to determine effect of nitrogen fertilization on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain yield and quality parameters. The authors reviewed existing studies on the use of nitrogen fertilizer and the quality and yield of winter wheat in the non-Chernozem soil conditions in the Central region of Russia. Various indicators, such as the winter wheat yield and the gluten, fibrin, and crude protein contents, were assessed. The research outcome reveals a positive correlation between the appropriate use of nitrogen fertilizers and the increase in winter wheat yield and the quality of the grain in Non-Chernozem Zone of Central Russia.
