Resumo

The continuous aridisation of the last decades in the area of the rivers Caras and Nera requires crops resistant to drought. Among legumes cultivated for their beans, chickpea is a crop that deserves the attention and care of agriculturists due to its good yielding capacity - 2.5-3.5 t/ha - and to its good adaptability to soil and climate conditions. Research was carried on a brown, luvic, vertic, pseudo-gleyied, moderately- strong decarbonated soil at Racasdia, in the Oraviţa Depression. The paper presents data concerning the Cicero I, Burnas, and Rodin cultivars, with differentiated fertilisation, and with impact on the number of ramifications per plant, on the number of pods per plant and on bean yield. The study also contains data concerning the impact of studied intervention factors on protein content and production. Medium protein content was 24.7% in the cultivar Cicero I, 24.9% in the
