THE INFLUENCE OF METEOROLOGIC CONDITIONS DURING THE PERIOD 2015-2017 ON THE PRODUCTION OF THE MAIN AGRICULTURAL CROPS FROM THE NORTHERN PART OF BANAT

ABSTRACT

The current paper follows the climatic evolution of the main meteorological parameters in the area of the Nadlac locality, during the period 2015-2017, and, for the same period, we highlighted the way in which these meteorological factors influenced the productions of the main crops from the studied area. Analysis of the thermal regime for the three years under study highlighted a decrease in temperature, more pronounced during winter 2016/2017. During the summer period of the same time interval, no significant deviations from the multiannual averages were registered, except for 2017, when long heat periods were registered during summer. From pluviometric point of view, one can state the fact that 2016 brought the highest precipitation surplus, directly influencing the productions recorded in the Nadlac locality area. On the contrary, 2017 brought a pluviometric deficit, which led to a significant decrease of the main field crop productions.
