The importance of this topic is derived from the fact that the agricultural production takes place under the influence of a complex of environmental factors and conditions modified in time and space by human intervention, which requires the knowledge of all ecological determinants in terms of their productive capacity in order to choose those more appropriate crops and technological measures for their sustainable management. The purpose of the researches is based on current scientific and practical preoccupations regarding the accumulation of knowledge on the soil and climate characteristics and on the relations established between them and the ecological requirements of the main cultivated plants, in order to identify and develop an integrated management efficient from the agronomic, ecological and conservative point of view for the soil and the environment. The issue addressed covers an area of 408143 ha of which 381098 ha of agricultural land, located between Mure? to the north, the High Plain of Banat (Vinga, G?taia) to the east, the state border with Serbia to the south and south-west, and Hungary to the north-west. The geomorphological evolution of the researched area, located in the subsidence and depositional plain of the Mure?, Bega, Timi? and B?rzava rivers, is related to the evolution in time of the marine (Thetys) or lake (Panonic) environment that generated the formation of soils (eutricambosoils, vertisols, pelosoils, salsodisoils, etc.), which during one agricultural year presents two extreme situations, namely: excessive moisture in the cold season and lack of moisture during the hot period of the year, both situations generating a series of stress-related negative effects on the productivity and quality of agroecosystems. Considering these aspects regarding the existence of risks due to various manifestations of natural factors or human irrational interventions, in the present paper the authors try to transfer descriptive theoretical activities to analytical ones that provide practical solutions in the sustainable management of edaphic resources. The paper provides basic knowledge and methodological elements for substantiating technologies appropriate to the soil and climate conditions specific to the area in which the researches were undertaken and to similar areas.
