In the context of ensuring better food security and in line with the objectives of the field crop research strategy, increasing wheat production capacity remains a priority. This has been achieved by studying a set of local and foreign winter wheat varieties to test their genetic potential in specific pedoclimatic conditions of the ARDS Braila area of influence, respectively, the North-East Baragan. During the agricultural years 2020-2021 and 2021-2022, a total of 14 varieties of autumn wheat were tested under conventional technology conditions. Yield levels under the conditions of an optimal rainfall agricultural year 2020-2021 were satisfactory for the wheat crop, and yields in the range of 5582-7994 kg/ha were obtained. In the agricultural year 2021-2022, characterized by very dry rainfall throughout the year, with a total deficit of 155.7 mm compared to the multi-year average, wheat yields were in the range of 5435-6746 kg/ha.
