Drought is most restrictive abiotic factor who affect negatively seed yield and seed oil content of sunflower genotypes. Years 2024 and 20254 are characterized as a drought year and in this paper, we present results about seed oil content of ten sunflower hybrids belonging to NARDI Fundulea, cultivated in Express Sun system, in south eastern of Romania, in Fundulea location. In year 2024 was registered an average seed oil content between 35.2% at sunflower hybrid H8E and 45.8% at sunflower hybrid FD15E27. In year 2025 was registered an average seed oil content between 31.58% at sunflower hybrid H8E and 41.71% at sunflower hybrid FD15E27. In year 2025, was registered a lowest seed oil content at all ten sunflower hybrids analysed in both years. In year 2024 was registered an average seed yield between 623kg/ha at sunflower hybrid H8E and 1155 kg/ha at sunflower hybrid H1E. In year 2025 was registered an average seed yield between 1792 kg/ha at sunflower hybrid H2E and 2334 kg/ha at sunflower hybrid H1E. In year 2024, was registered a lowest seed yield than year 2025.
