Abstract:
In the 2008-2012 period, in
the Seed production laboratory from
Agricultural Research and Development
Station (A.R.D.S.) Secuieni, Neamţ county,
Romania, were cultivated three varieties of
soybean, Granat, Eugen and Onix, created at
A.R.D.S. Turda, Cluj county. These
varieties were well adapted to the climatic
conditions of A.R.D.S. Secuieni, obtaining
yields of up to 3000 kg/ha. During 2008-
2012, the following amounts of seeds were
produced: PB1(pre-basic seed 1): 11000 kg
in 2008, 8700 kg in 2009, 6500 kg in 2010,
5600 kg in 2011 and 3800 kg in 2012; PB2
(pre-basic seed 2): 45900 kg in 2008, 39000
kg in 2009, 67000 kg in 2010, 32000 kg in
2011 and 27000 kg in 2012. The amount of
seed from the biological category PB2
ensure, annual, the required for sowing 300-
700 ha of basic biological category, which is
delivered to farmers for the sowing of about
5000-12000 ha. Both in the field of seed
production as well as in the ecological
testing field (comparative cultures of
contest) Onix variety presented the greatest
adaptability to the pedoclimatic conditions
from the Central Moldavian Plateau,
achieving the highest yields.
