STUDY REGARDING THE EVOLUTION OF IRRIGATED SOYBEAN CULTURE UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF VIIŞOARA - CÂMPIA TURZII AREA

Abstract

In this paper are presented results of the research conducted under the specific conditions of the Transylvanian Plain, regarding the influence of irrigation on the yield of soybean crop. Experiences that underlie this work were complex, being organized in the Viișoara - Câmpia Turzii area, near the Agricultural Research and Development Station Turda, where were created the soybean varieties that were tested. Research has been conducted since 2009, in two phases of three years, from 2009 to 2011 and from 2012 to 2014, being tested three varieties of soybeans, Onix, Eugen and Felix, under different water and fertilization conditions. The results showed that the introduction of irrigation factor, along with fertilizer and a biological material with a high potential for production, are elements which, despite higher costs, proved to be economically efficient.
