ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY OF LETTUCE CROP IRRIGATED THROUGH DIFFERENT METHODS

Abstract

The research purpose of this paper, was to determine the economic efficiency of irrigation on lettuce cultivated in a protected area, while aiming to attain early crops of high quality, at low specific costs. From an economical point of view researches showed that micro-sprinklers irrigation is recommended. Though the yields are lower using this method, they are enough to determine a higher gain.
