Abstrakt: The reduced soil humidity level has detrimental irreversibile effects on the eggplant crop, by massive abortion of flowers and qualitative fruit spoilage.To establish the soil humidity threshold favorable soil humidity for this crop a series of experiments which followed the interaction soil-water-plant-climate under optimal supplying and various water stress level conditions were carried out of which some results are being presented here on the interaction soil-water-plant-climate, under conditions of optimal supplying and at various water stress levels. The first results led to following conclusions: eggplant crop prefers balanced soil humidity regime, not lower than 60 % of the range of available water content, being however not higher than the normal field capacity of soil (below 90 % moisture ceiling of AWC);under certain environment conditions (60% moisture ceiling of AWC) the soil humidity level favourizes relevance of soil productive potential.
