Abstract

Testing ecological cultivars in different climatic conditions is very important for achieving optimum crop technologies. On luvosoil from Oradea and sands from Valea lui Mihai, cultivars of peppers, tomatoes, fall cabbage and watermelons were studied. Out of the twelve peppers cultivars tested in Oradea, the highest yield was obtained at cultivar Mureş 23.3 t/ha. These cultivars (Arădean and Galben superior) have the highest percentage of first quality. On the sands from Valea lui Mihai out of the six cultivars of peppers, the highest yield was obtained for cultivar Uriaş de California (27.39 t/ha). Out of the four long peppers cultivars tested, the highest yield was obtained for cultivar Lung românesc (26.2 t/ha) and out of the five cultivars of sweet pepper, the cultivar Timpuriu de Bucureşti had the highest yield (15.9 t/ha); for paprika pepper, the cultivar Arad 6 yield obtained was higher than in cultivar Arad 5. In the conditions of sands from Valea lui Mihai, out of the twelve earlier tomato cultivars tested, the highest yield was obtained in cultivar Nr.10 x Bizon and out of the seventeen cultivars of tomatoes for industrialization, the highest yield was obtained for cultivar Arges 411 (99.7 t/ha). Testing the eight cultivars of autumn cabbage in the conditions from Oradea showed that cultivar De Socodor obtained the highest yield, 56.7 t/ha and (beside cultivar Mocira) the highest percentage of first quality bulbs, 90%. Regarding the watermelons crop, out of the eight cultivars tested in Oradea, for cultivar Roxana the highest yield of first quality were obtained. On the sands from Valea lui Mihai, among the ten studied species, the highest yield was obtained for Dr. Mauch cultivar.
