Over the period 2004-2018, on the luvisol from Șimnic were tested 394 varieties and lines of winter wheat of different origins, at least 3 years each, in order to identify those with high productive potential and a high degree of adaptability to the pedoclimatic conditions in the area. The analysis of the results was made in terms of average yields obtained from the varieties and lines of wheat tested. The registered values had extreme limits: 267 kg / ha for the Bancal variety in 2015 and 8420 kg/ha for the Gruia variety in 2004. The average preponderant classes were 4001-5000 kg/ha and 5001- 6000 kg/ha, with 25% of the results placed in each of them. The fact that the Glosa variety registered the highest average yield over a period of 15 years (5078 kg/ha) certifies the results of this research, knowing that this variety is the most cultivated and the most stable variety in Romania.
