- Abstract
In the experimental field of UASVM Cluj-Napoca from Jucu we performed, between 2008- 2010, a series of research on the behavior of eight varieties of marigold, in three conditions of soil fertilization with manure. Marigold experimental variants were established by direct seeding by hand, at a distance of 70 cm between rows. Each cultivar was sown in four repetitions, each 25 sqm. The annual average air temperature in Jucu was 10.71° C in 2008, 11.12° C in 2009 and 11.21° C in 2010. In terms of rainfall, 2008 was very dry, 2009 excessively dry and 2010 was very wet. Climatic conditions were favorable for growing marigolds. Economic efficiency indicators were calculated to reveal the effectiveness of soil fertilization with organic fertilizers and value the tested cultivars, in terms of production. Economic efficiency calculation was performed using marigold yields obtained in 2008-2010 in the three agrofunds (F0, F20 and F40). There were dried marigold's flower productions between 1,042 and 1.700 kg / ha. The highest yields were obtained in 2008, when climatic conditions were more favorable than in other years. The greatest net profit (average 2008 - 2010) was obtained by cultivation of Belezza del Pacifico (3.69 thousands lei/ha), followed by Cluj 2 (3.65 thousands lei/ha) and Starsem 922 (3.50 thousands lei/ha)
