INFLUENCE OF PESTICIDE USING ON THE QUALITY OF SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE

Lucica Dobre, Dorina Nicoleta Mocuţa

Abstract

In the era of sustainable development, the sustainability-era, the different instruments, and modern tools to carry out actions and activities that lead to an increase in the quality of life, both rural and urban environment, led us to ask the following questions: What are in fact the visible or less visible costs, in the medium and long term, when we choose to carry out activities related to agriculture that have easy and short-term success? What are the risks or benefits of such activities, in the medium and long term? Also, the topic of the present article addresses a simple question: What type of agriculture is more convenient, better in the medium and long term? Intensive agriculture with intense mechanization, which calls for intense chemicalization or organic agriculture, and the classic-traditional, green, more "rudimentary" one, if we look at it from the perspective of biotechnological discoveries, of the super-technological that takes place today in all fields of human activity? We try to shed light on these aspects and analyze them in such a way that, thinking from the perspective of sustainable development and sustainability standards agreed by common agrarian development policies, we reach levels of quality of life that bring progress, satisfaction and well-being in all areas and at all levels of human development. The research methodology of our approach is based on the conclusions of statistical studies, INS, Eurostat, on the analysis of local and European agrarian development programs, on the documentation of scientific perspectives described in specialized papers, scientific articles on the topic we are dealing with.
