GENERAL ASPECTS CONCERNING THE CLIMATE OF THE OLTENIA REGION. CASE STUDY: THE OLT COUNTY

Abstract

The analysis and interpretation of data on the agro-climatic resources of a cultivated area offer the possibility to characterize the degree of favorability for cultivated species depending on the climate and soil bid. Depending on the climate, soil and the agricultural species requirements, the agro-technical management system must be applied properly, so as to allow the improvement of agricultural productivity. The aim of this study is to assess the agro-climatic resources of the Oltenia region, for the period 1961–2008 and especially of the Olt County, in terms of thermic and precipitation resources for the period 1990–2013. The knowing of these conditions is required for choosing the cultivated product and the crop production interventions used for obtaining optimal economic crops.
