ABSTRACT. – Pedological risks in Romania. Preliminary analysis. The pedological resources of a territory lay at the basis of agricultural potential, because they have a direct influence on the favorability or restrictiveness of a territory for a certain use. Therefore, the study of the physical-chemical and morphological characteristics of soils becomes very important when one proposes economically viable agricultural crops. The restrictive climatic and morphological factors may have isolated or cumulative negative effects on the agricultural sector in a certain territory, but the pedological risks are most difficult to mitigate. The purpose of this study is to analyze the distribution of pedological risk classes across Romania, assessing the scientific literature in the field, and to highlight the regions comprising the largest areas affected by soil-related risks.
Key-words: pedological risks, pedological drought, soil loss, salinization.
