GENERAL ASPECTS OF THE AGRO-CLIMATOLOGIC POTENTIAL IN MUNTENIA REGION

Abstract

As knowing the impact of weather phenomena and their effects on agriculture represents a primary necessity, atpresent the importance of agro-meteorological information for economy, in general, and for the agriculture sector,in particular, involves a complex approach of the relation environment–plant. The agro-climatologic resource’sassessment is multi-way needed: to choose the product and to cultivate varieties; for different phyto-technicalinterventions used to improve soil fertility; it is also economically fundamental in order to obtain optimum yields.This article frames an analysis and a synthesis of the main agro-climatic parameters, the air temperature and theprecipitation for the region of Muntenia, considering the period between 1961- 2009. As this region has the largestagricultural land in Romania, is it useful and necessary for everyone who aims to carry on agricultural business orstudies to be well informed on the agro-climatologic potential that characterizes it.
