abstract = "This research focuses on assessing the general profitability
of organically produced spelt. Spelt is an ancient grain that
has experienced a resurgence in Serbia in the late seventies
of the previous century, due to its exceptional nutritional
value and high compatibility with organic farming. Field
experiments were conducted in northern Serbia over
four years, applying further financial analysis. The main
goal of the research is to identify and quantify the costs,
benefits, and general profitability of organic production of
spelt in the climatic conditions of Serbia. Results indicate
that organically produced spelt is economically profitable,
primarily due to its significantly higher market price
compared to conventionally produced spelt. Given climate
change concerns, promoting the cultivation of climateresilient
crops, like spelt, becomes crucial. Organic spelt
cultivation could play a significant role in adapting crops
to climate change, emphasizing the need for activities that
mitigate negative environmental impacts.",
