Abstract
The aim of the present research was to study the influence of planting
distances on the growth and yield on rhubarb, cultivars of Victoria, Glanskin’s
perpetual and local population. Applying differential cultivation technology,
rhubarb yield varies according to crop density. The highest production was
obtained in case of Victoria cultivar at density of 13.330 pl.ha-1 (0.75 m x 1 m).
Statistically assured yields were also obtained at the density 10.000 pl.ha-1 (1 m
x 1 m) on the same cultivar. Total yield varied within wide limits according to
planting distances, ranging from 24.480 kg.ha-1 to 41.460 kg.ha-1
