Between 2015 and 2017, at the Research and Development Station for Plant Culture on Sands Dăbuleni, were studied three varieties of sweet potato to determine the influence of environmental factors on some plant metabolic processes and, consequently, on the production achieved. The varieties studied were Yulmi, Juhwangmi and KSP 1. The results revealed the influence of the variety, the planting season and the climatic conditions on the development of physiological processes, their intensity influencing the quantity and quality of production. The best results on the production were recorded at the variants cultivated under the climatic conditions of the 2016 year, detaching the variant cultivated with the Juhwangmi variety, with an average production of 43.6 tons. At Yulmi and KSP 1 varieties it was obtained the highest production at variants grown in the first epoch of 2016 year (May 10-15), respectively 34.3 tons at Yulmi variety and 31.7 tons at KSP 1 variety.
