RESEARCHES REGARDING THE WATER CONSUMPTION AT SOY BEAN CULTURE, IN EXPERIMENTAL YEARS 2005-2006

The researches took place in experimental field at Târnăveni (Târgu-Mures); the region being part of the sub humid zone of Transylvania. The water consumption for soy bean was determinate, in the first two experimental years, with the help of direct method of water balance from the soil and with indirect method Thornthwaite. The year 2005 was a hot year, the values of the water consumption are higher compare with temperatures recorder in the year 2006, in the first year, incoming with lots of wets in the vegetation period. Between those two used methods for water consumption determinations are not significant differences. Table 1 and table 2 include the medium daily water consumption values obtain with the both methods of the soy bean culture in the experimental years 2005 and 2006.
