Economic Efficiency of Broccoli Production Depending on Sowing and Planting Dates

An experiment was set up to study the economic effect of different sowing and planting dates. The field trial was conducted in the experimental garden of the Institute of Agriculture - Kyustendil over the period 20082011 via the block method in four replications. Three sowing and six planting dates were examined for the four broccoli hybrids used: Fiesta F1, Coronado F1, Marathon F1 and Parthenon F1. The plants were grown according to the adopted methodology for late field production. The flower heads were harvested at the most proper stage of development.The production costs of broccoli growing are within the range 400.5 to 795 lv/da and depend on the different volume of agro technical practices undertaken over the years and the resulting output. The highest net income of the studied hybrids is obtained by Parthenon F1 in all variants, which is due to the higher yields obtained by the plants of this hybrid.The most efficient for the region of Kyustendil broccoli sowing date is 15 16.06. and planting of the 30-day seedlings on 15-16.07
