Abstract

Plant production varies from year to year, being significantly influenced by fluctuations in climate and climate conditions in particular by the extreme weather events. Climatic variability influences all sectors of the economy, but the most vulnerable remains agriculture and the impact on it is more important today. Climate change is more pronounced every year. The complex effects of climate change on agriculture underlie the necessity of the decision-making process on risk reduction in order to maintain adequate harvest standards and to promote sustainable agriculture. Thus, variability and climate change must be addressed through the prism of daily agricultural activities, with the help of mitigation strategies and adaptation measures.

The article presents the evolution and the areas of rapeseed culture in Romania. Rapeseed is the plant most widely used in Europe for its energy value. Because climate change has taken place over the last period of time, this agriculture culture is beginning to occupy an important place in oil plant production in Romania.
