The paper presents the results of testing of five varieties of wheat, triticale and barley species, cultivated in the conventional and ecological luvisoil systems at the Agricultural Research and Development Station of Simnic (ARDS) between 2016 and 2018. The following factors were the subject of biometric determinations: grain production, plant height, test weight (TW), 1000 grains weight (TGW), no. of grains / ear, weight of grains / ear and the protein content. The results obtained were analyzed regarding the influence of the three experienced factors (A factor - species, B factor - variety, C factor - crop system) and their interaction. All varieties tested were more productive in the conventional system rather than in the ecological system. The obtained results suggest that the TW was influenced by the interaction between the three factors, while the TGW was largely influenced by the variety within a species, but less influenced by the crop system. The crop system had a major influence on the protein content in all species and all varieties.
