Abstract

Technological properties are a number of properties divided into three groups: physical, morphological and organoleptic. Knowledge and determination of these properties is very important because in practice, they help in the evaluation of raw tobacco leaf. The purpose of this study was to examine the important technological properties: representation of the midrib in the leaves, the thickness of tobacco leaves and materiality, and by them to show the technological and commercial quality of the tested varieties. Investigations were carried out in the Scientific Tobacco Institute-Prilep. The trial was set up by the method of randomized blocks with four replications. Three varieties of Yaka tobacco were examined: Yaka YV 125/3 Ø (control), Yaka YZ - 7 и Yaka YK- 48. The results obtained in the accredited Laboratory for control of authenticity and quality of raw tobacco - L04 in Scientific Tobacco Institute - Prilep, showed that percentage representation of midrib was within the boundaries of the quality of raw tobacco or 16.05% in variety JZ - 7 to 18.25% in JK – 48. Materiality is from 44.92 g/m2 (YV 125/3), to 48.90 g/m2 (YZ - 7).
The obtained results show that the investigated Yaka tobacco varieties have good technological properties and high technological and commercial quality.
