Abstract

The research carried out during 2012-2013 in Agricultural Research and Development Station Oradea in the plots placed on the hill with 10% slope show the important differences between the yield obtained in the top of the hill and base of the hill both in the maize seeded on the level curves direction (1700 kg/ha in 2012 and 1950 kg/ha in 2013) and, especially in the maize seeded from top to valley (2460 kg/ha in 2012 and 2410 kg/ha in 2013). As consequence the maize grains quantity obtained for every 1m3 of water consumed is bigger at the base of the hill in comparison with the top of the hill; the bigger differences were registered in the variant with maize seeded from top to valley.
