STUDIES CONCERNING THE DETERMINATION OF ENERGETIC BALANCE IN SOME ASSOCIATIONS OF SEEDED PASTURES, IN BANAT’S FIELD

Abstract

The amount of energy produced (EP) is the energetic equivalent of the forage biomass yield achieved from any type of association. Depending on the fertilization level applied, in the case of the 10 associations studied, the energy amount achieved in a 3-year period was 9181 KWh/ha, respectively 2.7 times bigger than the energy input (EI). The graminaceous and legume associations studied recorded a relatively low average capitalization coefficient of the energy input (0.37), proving the technological efficiency of these crops.
