Beside the yield gained of the autumn wheat’s crop, the quality of it is the decisive factor of the seeding of a said kind or hybrid. The use of crop technology, but also of some recent innovations, lead to the improvement of the wheat crops. The cereal production is affected by the drought, one of the leading factors of abiotic stress, who is also affecting even tolerant crops. The constantly changing weather forces the farmers to adapt the crop technology specifically to the conditions of the local weather, the type of soil and the agricultural practices used to find the best strategy of seed distribution. This article presents the results of the effectuated studies with the purpose of determining the optimal depth of sowing in nonirrigable conditions and reduced precipitations in the southern part of the country. A year with water shortages is a different year when we can observe the influence of climate conditions over the growth of wheat crops at different depths.
