Abstract:
The agrotehnological measures which have a major negative impact 
on the planting material rated capacity are the following: on the first place is  
situated the planting of the potato 30 days later, followed by stems damaging 
after 20 days from the warning. 
From quantity point of view the  later planting  and the vegetation 
interruption had  a negative effect on the  planting material  rated capacity at 
both cultivars (Astral and Rapsodia). The diminishing of the planting 
material rated capacity, as a consequence  of the vegetation interruption was 
significantly amplified when the planting activity was accomplished earlier 
both  in Suceava and Lucina at the cultivars Rapsodia and Astral. 
In comparison with Suceava, in Lucina was registered a significant 
grows of the tuber yields used like planting material (13,3 q/ha), representing 
a significant increase of the yield with 9%. The quantitative estimation of the 
triple interactions (cultivar –planting time - stage of the vegetation 
interruption) suggested that the yields diminishing are caused by the later 
planting being dependent by the stage of the vegetation interruption too. If in 
Suceava those two cultivars reacted in a similar manner, in Lucina the 
postpone of the vegetation interruption with 20 days, attenuated the limitative 
effect of the planting delay only at the Astral cultivar.
