Comparation of yields and financial results for different durum wheat varieties in Mediterranean conditions

Production costs, gross revenue and profitability of ten durum wheat cultivars was evaluated during two vegetation seasons in Poreč, Croatia at northwestern Mediterranean area. Gross revenues and profits depended upon grain yield and protein content. Highest average biannual profit was 287 EUR ha-1 for variety Iride, followed by varieties Claudio, Solex and Preco with profits 256 – 211 EUR ha-1. Lowest average profit had Simeto, 68 EUR ha-1. Varieties Iride, Simeto and Neodur gained higher profits in dry climate circumstances 2002., while varieties Claudio, Colosseo and Torrebianca gained higher profit in 2001. as a consequence of higher precipitation during vegetation. The study highlights, that varietal stress tolerance of crop plants may have an economic importance.
