- Abstract
Agriculture has been a vital area of human activity since ancient times, a thing that can be observed even today, representing both the only source of food and an important supplier of raw materials for different industries. The importance of agriculture differs from country to country, but it continues to be the main economic branch in all nations, including the highly developed ones. In this paper we want to present the suitability level of the soils in Carani, for the establishment of a tree plantation in this area (Marin 2013, Astrid 2017). The suitability of the soils is checked for the following varieties of trees: apple (MR), pear (PR), plum (PR), plum (PR), cherry-cherry (CV), apricot (CS), peach (PC).((In order to determine this suitability, a series of soil types and subtypes were chosen, namely: typical endocalcaric preluvosoil (7.50 ha), typical preluvosoil (29.13 ha), stagnant preluvosoil (4.15 ha) and molic preluvosoil (6, 30 ha). Following the analysis performed on the characteristics of the soil they are distributed within one of the four classes of suitability (Florescu 2014). The bonitary marks offered to the soils being the main indicator for classifying them. The total area considered for this study is 47.08 ha. A number of recommendations will also be made regarding possible improving the suitability of the if that is possible (Mihut, 2018).
