Abstract
Over a period of three years (2000–2002), wheat and rye samples of integrated and ecological cultivation in the land Brandenburg were analyzed by HPLC for theFusarium toxins deoxynivalenol and zearalenone. In the years 2000 and 2001, the contamination generally was lower than in the year 2002. In the 3 years of testing, the contamination byFusarium toxins was significantly less frequent and lower in cereals of ecological cultivation than in cereals of integrated cultivation.
