THE INFLUENCE OF CULTIVAR AND PLANT DENSITY ON CAULIFLOWER PRODUCTION UNDER THE TRANSYLVANIAN PEDOCLIMATIC CONDITIONS
Abstract
Cauliflower is grown for hypertrophic inflorescences used in the preparation of various meals and pickles or in the canning industry. Inflorescences have a high water content (90%). The energy value of cauliflower inflorescences is low (118.5 kj / 100g) due to the relatively low content of energy. The cauliflower culture is practiced in the field as well as in protected areas. The pedo-climatic conditions in Transylvania are favorable for the cultivation of cauliflower because it behaves like a wet and cool climate plant. The hot and dry periods in the inflorescence phase have a negative effect on plant growth but also on production.The experience was carried out during 2016, in the Apahida-Juc area, Cluj County. Experimental factors were the cultivar and plumage of plants. Experimental culture was set up in the field in June.The papers published in the journal are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License, which permits unrestricted, non-commercial use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the work is properly cited.
