The plant that was the object of the research was represented by the sorghum plant (Sorghum bicolor var. eusorghum) and the aim of the work was to be able to observe the behaviour of some hybrids in the pedo-climatic conditions of the Braila Agricultural Research and Development Station. It is known about grain sorghum that it presents some physiological characteristics that allow it to be cultivated in restrictive pedo-climatic conditions. These conditions refer to the presence of poor soils and areas where temperatures are higher than average and water supplies are poor. Under such conditions it is more difficult for the maize crop to provide economically profitable production. In this situation, growers can use sorghum as a safe option for obtaining profitable productions. In this paper it will be discussed the adaptability and productivity, two important elements for this crop.
