Although organic viticulture has slowly developed in last decades, especially in Europe, with Italy, France, and Spain as main promoters, in Romania organic viticulture is still at the beginning. The research focused on the main technological sequences (soil management, fertilization, disease, and pest control) in conventional and organic viticulture and the influence on leaf area, yield, grape quality, management costs, and profit in 'Cabernet Sauvignon’, 'Feteasca Neagra’, 'Pinot Noir’, 'Italian Riesling’, and 'Chardonnay’ wine varieties from Recas-Petrovaselo Vineyards. Variants from organic grapevine registered lower yields compared to the conventional ones, without significant differences in the grapes quality. The management and production costs were higher in the organic viticulture plots, but also the profit was higher due to demand and the higher price of wine. Organic viticulture, through the correlation of the technological sequences with the requirements of the varieties and natural resources from the growing area, has great chances to spread more and more based on the demand and the development of a stable market in Romania.
