The exodus of young people from rural areas in Romania, corroborated with the decrease of the population at national level is a major problem of the country. The Common Agricultural Policy integrates this issue, finding several forms of support both in Pillar I, on direct payments, and in Pillar II, on rural development. This paper proposes the analysis of support for young farmers in the second pillar. Thus, the measures related to the support of young farmers through the National Rural Development Program will b...

A current global concern is environmental protection. Many of the human activities affect the environment and implicitly have economic repercussions. Economic and social development must be achieved so that economic activities cause as little damage to the environment as possible. The financial amounts allocated depend on the economic situation of each country. Expenditures for environmental protection represent an indicator regarding the actions undertaken by economic agents and the public administration concerni...

Cruciferous vegetables are rich source of phytochemicals which play an important role as a health-protecting factor. These compounds and enzymatic systems may combat oxidative stress in the human body by maintaining a balance between oxidants and antioxidants. This is particularly important because under oxidative stress excessive formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can damage biomolecules, such as DNA, proteins, lipids and carbohydrates, and lead to numerous disease conditions. The enzyme superoxide dismut...

Miscanthus sp. is a perennial grass cultivated in the European Union with multiple uses. It can be used as a commercial energy crop or as a resource for easy construction materials and isolation. It can also be used as a source of CO2 capture and restraint. Miscanthus is a plant which demand low needs for fertilization, adapting easily to less fertile soils. In this way it was taken into study the behavior of this species on a sandy soil, poorly fertile from Southern Romania, under the influence of some doses of n...

Energetic crops are increasingly used as renewable sources of energy as well as for their ability to fix and accumulate carbon in the soil. Willow culture for biomass promotes rural development and environmental protection, especially if it is established in areas less favorable for agricultural crops. Researches from this work has been carried out in a wide range of genotypes of Salix sp. cultivated on a deposit of ash resulting from coal burning to Isalnita Power Station, near Craiova, Romania, over a period of ...

The method for exploiting the coal layers by using the crazing and submitting the roofs of the mining works from the underground is an alternative applied on large scale into the brown coal mines from the main coal basin Jiu Valley situated into the S-W of Romania. The technology of individual supporting – by using the open circulation hydraulic props together with the linked metallic bars with blocking bolts and wedges, assume some great physical efforts and the factor of working security is not totally assured...

The transport represents one of the main sides of the mining technological process, the preponderance of the expenses of this activity reported to the expenses for producing a tone of useful mineral substance extracted from the underground reaching almost 40\%. A good transport system presumes to assure a permanent continuity with passive time cycles having minimum values and functioning in well correlated cascade dimensionally and capacitive speaking. It’s obvious that a transport flow is performing if starting...
