Influence of slipping of drive belt from distribution device and slipping of supporting wheel, driving wheel of distribution devices on sowing precison, in case of a sowing machine for experimental fields
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Chirilă, Constantin; Cazacu, Dan
The paper presents the results of the realised tests with a sowing machine for experimental fields, to determine the influence of designing solution for drive transmission of distribution devices and the influence of slipping of supporting wheel which drive the distribution devices, on sowing precision. Were analysed the possibility to equip the sowing machine for experimental fields with a driving transmission of distribution devices through a Poly V type belt. Was adopted this solution because it have a simple design, an easy exploitation, adjustment and maintenance. The results of the realised tests have the role to offer notions regarding the way in which belt slipping affected the value of the distance between seeds sowed on row and variation which appear regarding the number of sowed seeds per square unit. At the end of the tests was determining the slipping coefficient of supporting wheel which drives the distribution devices. Also in this case was analysed how affect this coefficient the value of the distance between seeds on row and variations of number of sowed seeds on unit area. Was also analysed the summed influence of those two slipping coefficients on sowing precision and sowing norm. At the end of the paper are presented the drawn conclusions after analysis of the obtained data by tests and recommendations for improving of sowing precision of the studied sowing machine.

Preliminary tests regarding the operating conditions and modeling of the energy consumption for a domestic refrigerator
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Roșca, Radu; Chiruță, Ciprian; Vlahidis, Virgil; Ciorap, Radu
Energy saving and resources and environment preservation are key factors for the sustainable development of our society and hence domestic appliances are also targeted for energy efficiency improvements. Because refrigerators are the largest energy consuming appliances in households due to their widespread use and continuous operation there is a need for rigorous investigations regarding the energy consumption and efficiency of these devices. In the present paper the results of experimental tests are presented; in order to predict the energy consumption of the appliance in different operating conditions (ambient temperature, load and door openings) a simplified model was developed, based on the experimental data. A statistical analysis of the model was then performed in order to evaluate the goodness-of-fit between the model and the experimental data. The tests were performed in different days (starting at 7 a.m. each day) between may, 2015, and september, 2015. As the aim was to obtain results for two different ambient temperatures (250C and 300C) there was a selection of the results in order to achieve this goal; for the selected tests the actual mean environmental temperatures were: 25.080C and 30.040C respectively. The Multi linear regression method was used in order to develop the energy consumption model. The results confirmed that refrigerator load and ambient temperature have a significant effect on the energy consumption, when there was no door opening during the test period; when door openings were taken into account the significance of the above-mentioned factors was diminished.

Land quality and productivity assessment database concerning the agricultural land of Ion Neculce commune, Iași county
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Radu, Oprea; Huțanu, Cristian; Curea, Daniel; Horjan, Oleg
Agricultural land quality and productivity assessment relies both on soil fertility, which is undoubtedly the most important factor, and on climate, relief and hydrology factors. Soil quality is affected to a higher or lesser extent by one or more restrictions determined either by natural factors, or by agricultural and industrial anthropogenic actions, which may have a negative synergistic influence, the effect of which is a decrease in soil quality and even the abolition of its functions. This paper tackles the soil mapping surveys and the climate, relief and hydrology conditions in the Ion Neculce administrative-territorial unit, Iaşi County. From the climate point of view, the surveyed unit belongs to the temperate climate, with an average annual temperature of 9.5 oC and average annual precipitations of 502 mm, which fall unevenly. The relief is mostly hilly, the biggest area of 6108 ha is located at altitudes ranging between 100 and 200 m, whereas 114 ha at altitudes ranging between 200 and 300 m. The water system is relatively dense and belongs to the Bahluieţ river basin, a characteristic being the intermittent watercourses and the presence of temporary ponds in the depression areas. The productive capacity of the soil on the mapped area of 6338 ha is affected by surface erosion (53.35%), landslide (27.74%), gullies (1.12%), gleying (14.11%), stagnogleying (0.56%) and salinization and alkalization up to 26.25% of the surveyed area. The Ion Neculce Commune soils belong to the Cernisoils (69.45%), Antrisoils (14.04%), Protisoils (9.91%), Luvisoils (3.40%), Hydrisoils (1.92%) and Salsodisoils (1.28%) classes.

Agricultural land quality in Ion Neculce commune, Iași county
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Radu, Oprea
Fertility is the most important soil characteristic and is defined by all its physical, chemical and biological features, which provide the plants with the necessary amounts of nutrients during their vegetation. Land generally has a natural fertility formed during the soil genesis process and an artificial fertility which is the result of human intervention, in the natural soil evolution, by breeding improvement measures. Agricultural land quality is determined by land quality and productivity assessment, according to which agricultural land in Romania is classified in five quality categories. Land quality and productivity assessment is conducted on land areas as homogeneous as possible from the viewpoint of its environmental conditions and vegetation factors. In the Ion Neculce administrative-territorial unit, the 76 simple soil units and 14 complex soil units identified, belonging to the Protisoils, Cernisoils, Luvisoils, Hydrisoils, Salsodisoils and Antrisoils classes, were included, depending on their slope and exposure, in elementary land units, which resulted in 340 simple ecologically homogeneous territories and 91 complex ones. Relying on the land quality and productivity assessment grades calculated for the 431 ecologically homogeneous territories, we decided that the surveyed land belonged to the arable use category, i.e. to II, III, IV and V quality classes. 48% of the total mapped area of 6338 ha belongs to the lower quality classes, namely IV and V, 39% to the III quality class and only 13% to the higher II quality class.

Updating of cadastral database with a view to the creation of vineyards and fruit trees
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Huțanu, Cristian; Radu, Oprea; Pădure, Dan
From the necessity of re-capitalization of the potential of 32.7923 ha of study area in the Didactic Resort V. Adamachi, Farm of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine of Iasi, were made topographical measurements to update the cadastral plan and cadastral database, in order to draw up projects for reestablishment of vineyards and fruit trees plantations. For a more effective management and exploitation of the potential of a vineyard and fruit trees area, it requires the establishment of Cadastral Informational System by domains of activities, because in the absence of them, the works of territory systematization can have a negative impact on the soil and the environment. In support of the reform of the fruit and wine sector from Romania, which according to the socio-economic analysis has shown that it is in a steady decline, the European Union comes through funding projects for the rehabilitation of this sector, especially wanting to protect the traditional vineyards and fruit trees areas. Cadastral databases obtained at the level of territorial-administrative units, based on the actual data in the field, can lead to achieve certain clear and accurate records, useful for both institutions managing such systems, as well as for users of these plantations. The most obvious changes have occurred in the time of re-establishing of 12.5 ha of vineyards and 3 ha of fruit tree plantations, with European funds through the Agency for Payments and Intervention in Agriculture. At the same time, these projects are made from the perspective of sustainable development of the Adamachi Farm, and the continuation of specific tradition of the area of East and North-East of Romania.

The use of map projections in the topographic and cadastral works of Iasi city
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Moca, Valeriu; Huțanu, Cristian; Radu, Oprea; Cârdei, Mihaela
For creating the geodetic support networks for the topographic and cadastral elevations made in the administrative territory of Iasi city a set of map projections have been used for various time intervals. Practically speaking, the official introduction of a projection system relied on the hypothesis of obtaining the smallest deformations possible for the cartographic representation of angles, distances and surfaces. In this context, for the city of Iasi it resulted necessary the use of the local map projections and the official projections for Romania’s territory. The analysis of the deformations identified for the projections used between 1950-2015 in Iasi city focused on establishing the accuracy of framing the graphic and textual databases from the local projection into the official projection. The case study included the comparative analysis of linear deformations and surfaces on geodetic trapeziums and real estates registered in the land register of Iasi city. For this, the specific deformations of the following systems were identified: the local stereographic projection of Iasi; the transverse cylindrical projection, conformal, Gauss-Krüger; stereographic perspective projection, oblique, conformal, on the unique secant plan – 1970; the stereographic projection on the local secant plan of Iasi, that derived from the 1970- stereographic projection. After finishing the implementation of the new unitary cadastre and real estate system, the cadastral recordings of real estates from the existent documentations must be correlated with the ones from the official 1970-Stereographic projection system.

Drawing up the numerical model for the field relief based on the detailed topographic elevations performed in the underground pipe drainage systems
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Moca, Valeriu; Crengăniș, Loredana; Radu, Oprea; Huțanu, Cristian; Savu, Constantin
For The modern cartographic representations of field relief as plans and digital maps, and numerical models, respectively, require the existence of new topographic measurements made with modern methods. In this context, a series of hydroameliorative systems with underground pipe drainage are taken into consideration so that afterwards the fields can be exploited as agricultural fields. The case study included the execution of detailed topographic elevations on 210 ha that included a pipe drainage system. The area was situated in the Baia-Sasca, Suceava County, hydroameliorative system. For conducting the field works there were used GPS receivers, total measuring stations and the A class network of permanent stations from the GPS-GNSS national system. After the real time processing of the on field observations it resulted the plan metric and altimetric set of elevation points. Based on this set of points it was created the digital plan in the 1970 Stereographic projection system of coordinates and the numerical model of the relief in the normal heights system – 1975 Blank Sea.

Motivations and challenges for entrepreneurs in agritourism
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Moraru, Radu-Adrian; Ungureanu, George; Bodescu, Dan; Donosă, Dan
The amalgamation of the two large industries, agriculture and tourism, created a new industry called agritourism. In the last decades it has been observed a significant increase in the number of farms that have diversified their activities by engaging in agritourism. The purpose of this paper was to identify the reasons for such diversification on the basis of specialized international literature. One individual can be determined to start a business both for reasons related opportunities as well as for reasons related to necessity. There are two categories of factors that influence the decision to start a business: "push" and "pull" factors. The authors found that the reasons for involvement in agritourism ventures encompass a complex web of both economic and social motives. Also, the farmers involved in agritourism businesses are faced with a number of challenges: lack of experience of farmers in the running of a tourism business; lack of knowledge, expertise and training in the tourism field; limited marketing channels and linkages; necessity to develop new skills in order to manage the tourists and their expectations.

Aspects concerning the human resources management at SC Comfert SRL Bacău
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Moraru, Radu-Adrian; Brezuleanu, Stejărel; Melniciuc, Andrei; Brezuleanu, Carmen-Olguța
Human capital is a critical factor for an organization's economic progress and the management of human resources is often seen as a bridge between employer and employee. The present paper aims to highlight some features of Human Resources practices at SC Comfert SRL Bacau, a company operating in three areas that have their own particularity: agriculture, trade and services. For this, it must take into account that human resources can not be isolated from the internal organization of the company, nor separated from its external environment. Human resource practices used by Comfert SRL SC are very diverse, due to the high heterogeneity of this company. Typically, managers are tempted to hire people who have a strong personal motivation and are able to perform multiple tasks. Generally, they prefer to approach “ad hoc” methods adapted to the specific situation and particular time and place of employment, rather than applying scientific strategies for the implementation of human resource management.

Studies regarding the development of agricultural production in the NE region of Romania
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Ungureanu, George; Boghiță, Eduard; Bodescu, Dan; Moraru, Radu-Adrian; Vîntu, Cătălin-Răzvan
The purpose of this paper is to promote the setting up of farms whose size allow the practice of a viable, sustainable agriculture, capable to apply the newest technologies and lead to profit and efficiency, to the economical and organizational consolidation. The risk is a very important variable in the simulation behaviour farms. this paper aims to build programming models to simulate the behaviour of agricultural farms, that must be calibrate by the culture plan of the year basis or as the average over several years by the agricultural holding. economic rationale behind this requirement is that in this way the model adequately represents the environment in which the decision maker agricultural structure shall base its decision. The paper aims at providing answers to questions such as:  Which is the percentage covered by agriculture in Romania’s gross domestic product?  Which are the main development criteria in private agricultural exploitations in the NE part of Romania?  Which is the competitiveness of agricultural exploitations, based on size groups?  Which is the structure of agricultural exploitations and which are the deviations from the planned level or other norms of reference?  Which is the degree of specialization of agriculture in the NE part of Romania?  How can political measures lead to the development of individual agricultural exploitations?  The paper represents a source of information for the specialists in the field, as well as for the individual agricultural produces who wish to modernize their structure and approach agriculture commercially, with the purpose of an increased economic efficiency.

Optimising production structure of agricultural holdings as a result of their adaptation to market requirements
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Ungureanu, George; Boghiță, Eduard; Bodescu, Dan; Donosă, Dan; Vîntu, Cătălin-Răzvan
The purpose of the paper is the analysis of the economic and financial results, as well as the optimum sizing at the level of various types of agricultural holdings in the NE region, in the Romanian contemporary agriculture. As a consequence, the resizing of the agricultural holdings, the partnership between the producers, the integration of agricultural production, the rural development, the consumers’ constant request for agricultural and food products, the decrease of the deficit of commercial balance for agricultural products, the increase of the population’s life standard, the safety of the food, all these are goals that have to be under the continuous attention of the authorities at central and local level. A market economy with improved efficiency implies perfecting production methods. To perfect the planning means to correlate the necessities and possibilities of agricultural production enterprises with the company’s needs. If within the centralized economy many problems are solved through directives, provisions, laws and so on, in the case of market economy the maximum percentage of one specific culture within a certain ploughable surface cannot be imposed to the producers, due to a simple fact: it solely concerns the company’s interests. By means of indirect ground tax for each culture, one can impose the quantum of the rational surface. The present paper aims at contributing to a change in the structure of agricultural crops by enhancing the economic efficiency of agricultural production in the agricultural exploitations in the North-Eastern part of Romania, through their evolution from an extremely low level of efficiency to the status of competitive enterprises, progress which can be attained by combining traditional elements with partially modernized technlogies and engaging them in the market economy.

Green accounting vs sustainable development
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Ignat, Gabriela; Timofte Mihai, Andreea-Alexandra; Acostăchioaie, Florentina
In the knowledge society, sustainable development can be understood as a way of development that can meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to achieve their demands. Sustainable development is not restricted to economic development, but is the glue between economic growth and environmental protection. Samuelson believes that "the task of saving the environment must become and will become the central organizing principle of the world after the Cold War." Therefore accounting tryies to regroup and consider systematically the facts related to the protection and restoration of the natural environment by respecting the traditional role of accounting to account the flows and risks related to natural environment in order to notify users of accounting information a true and fair view of the company. A serious problem that persists in every country is finding solutions in order to use natural resources in a sustainable way. Green accounting is based on the concept that the real assessment of a nation’s wealth should take into account the contributions of all economic sectors and their impact on degradation and natural resources use and requires both natural assets and the economic and environmental costs related to the degradation of these natural assets to be incorporated into the National system of Accounts. Green accounting considers the repercussions of not only the accounting firms' activities on the natural environment after they have already been produced, but also managing the actions taken by the company to prevent such problems. The new form of accounting has to be considered a true management tool used to improve the performance in relation to the environment, management and cost control, efficient investment in cleaner technologies, promotion of production processes and products less pollutant and is dedicated both to external users and internal management of any company. In this study, the authors try to present and explain the concept of green accounting in relation with viable development

Evolution scenario for the average wheat yield in the west of Romania
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Sala, Florin; Rujescu, Ciprian-Ioan; Feher, Andrea
Unbalanced fertilization and insufficient use of N, P and K fertilizers are direct factors that bring variability in the quality and quantity of the wheat yield at a national level. However, taking into consideration the (upward) trend in the use of these fertilizing elements in the past few years, the aim of the present study was to estimate the evolution of the average wheat yield for the west of the country, if the same growth rate of the fertilization level is maintained. The theoretical values of the average yields were obtained with a production function that indicates the correspondence between the yield and the quantities of N and of PK used. The expression of the production function is known (Q=f(N, PK)), due to previous studies on the behavior of Alex wheat in experimental conditions at BUASVMT; these conditions are considered to be representative for the West Plain, which is the reference area. In concordance with the particular data, which are specific from a physiological point of view, as well as in what the soil conditions, climate and technology are concerned, the results of the study bring useful information on the area under research, which can be used locally and regionally as well. In addition, the model can be expanded to cover the economic efficiency of the wheat crop through fertilization and to indicate some degradation processes in the fertility of soils.

Payment systems for irrigation water in Romania
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Lup, Aurel; Miron, Liliana; Alim, Indira
The necessity of regulations concerning payment of irrigation water appeared at the time when the irrigation areas passed of half million hectares in the second half of 60s (20 century). The main judicial act was Ministers Council Order No.1279/1967, according to that act were established the following kinds of taxes and tariffs: 18 lei/1000 m3 of delivered water; a charge depending of the crops 138 lei / hectare for field cultures, 195 lei / hectare for vegetables and 814 lei / hectare for rice. That for management and maintenance of the substructure of the irrigation systems. For the maintenance of the substructures of inner-equipped area the agricultural units paid between 87 lei / hectare and 294 lei / hectare depending of the type of irrigation systems and socioeconomic kind of farm, state or cooperative farm. In all the cases the taxes and tariffs did not covered actual costs of the Services delivered by the state so that all these Services was subsidized in a proportion of 70-75%. After 1991 in the market economy systems there remains only 1 tariff by 1000 m3 of water, but depending on the pumping height step by step, and the tariff must cover integral the costs of all Services. But the subsidy did not completely disappear.

Current status and development in beekeeping sector in Turkey and in the worldCurrent status and development in beekeeping sector in Turkey and in the world
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Demircan, Vecdi; Sarica, Deniz; Sert, Duygu
The objective of this study was to examine the current status and development of the beekeeping sector in Turkey and in the world during the 2000-2013 period. Whereas honey production in the world was 1.3 million tons during the 2000- 2002 period, it increased by 31% reaching 1.7 million tons in 2013. China is ranked number one in the world with a share of 27%, whereas Turkey is ranked number two with a share of 6%. Turkey is followed by Argentina, Ukraine and Russia in order. When the significant honey producing countries in the world are compared with respect to their shares among the world colony existence, it can be observed that China is ranked number one with a ratio 22%, India is ranked second with a share of 14% and Turkey is ranked number three with a share of 8%. 35% of all honey produced in the world is exported. Whereas world honey export was 380 thousand tons during the 2000-2002 period, it increased by 53% reaching 583 thousand tons in 2013. China is ranked number one in the world for honey export with a share of 21% and Argentina is ranked number two with a share of 11%. Whereas Turkey is ranked number 26 in the world with a 1% share of world honey export. Low honey export in Turkey is due mostly to the fact that the majority of the produced honey is consumed domestically. When world honey import is examined, it can be observed that the USA is ranked number one with a share of 27% followed by Germany (15%). Honey consumption average per capita is 0.20 kg/year. Countries in the world with the highest honey consumption per capita are Central African Republic (3.5 kg/year), Switzerland (1.5 kg/year), Greece (1.4 kg/year) and Turkey (1.3 kg/year). The most important problems related with beekeeping in Turkey can be listed as; productivity, quality and accordance with international standards.

Strategies and tools for disposal of social disequilibrium from the rural area through groups of local action
(“Ion Ionescu de la Brad” University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Iaşi, 2016) Brezuleanu, Stejărel; Brezuleanu, Carmen-Olguța; Costuleanu, Carmen-Luiza; Lupu, Mihaela-Luminița; Robu, Alexandru-Dragoș; Scarlat, Marius
The paper tackles the concept of local development and establishes methods of strategy development through the LEADER program as main instrument for the GAL Rediu Prăjeni zone in order to eliminate the social disequilibrium of this area in comparison to the urban areas. The paper brings to foreground the way in which it is implemented a local strategy within LEADER axis, which involves great importance and is also effective, because the local development is community-led, which allows to the local partners (public, private, civil society) to achieve realistic local development strategies, based on the requirements and priorities of rural territory taken into study. The Romanian rural area has numerous shortcomings, these representing also the reason of disparities between urban and rural areas with all their components: rural economy, demographic potential, health, school, culture, etc. To reduce these disparities, one solution is the development and implementation of integrated development strategies by local communities, taking as a starting point the identified needs and endogenous potential of rural areas
