Abstract
In the period 2019-2021, 131 cultivars of winter wheat were tested on the chernozem from Caracal in a network of within- and between-annual experiments (1-12 experiments located in 1-3 years). The study was performed only on the cultivars tested in at least 3 experiments (77 cultivars), grouped in 7 categories: Romanian cultivars (17), SYNGENTA cultivars (10), LIDEA cultivars (14), LG cultivars (7), AXEREAL cultivars (7), KWS cultivars (6), cultivars of various origins (16). Forty- four of the cultivars were tested in each of the 3 years studied, the average yields being between 10599 kg / ha for the Anapurna cultivar and 6793 kg / ha for the Bezostaia cultivar. In the top 15 were the Romanian cultivars Biharia (9843 kg / ha), Miranda (9701 kg / ha) and Abundent (9630 kg / ha).
