The pivotal role of soil as a resource is not fully appreciated by the general public. Improving education in science represents challenge world where resources are under serious threat. Today's high school students, world's future landowners, agriculturalists, and decision makers, have potential to change society's apathy towards soils issues. This research aimed compare level and/or secondary schools forty-three countries worldwide, together comprising 62% population. Comparisons were made...

The Transylvanian Plain, Romania is an important region for agronomic productivity. However, limited soils data and adoption of best management practices can hinder land Soil temperatures the Plain were evaluated using a set twenty datalogging stations positioned throughout plain. monitored at surface, 10 cm, 30 50 soil moisture was cm. Pedons excavated, described, sampled physicochemical analysis. Preliminary results indicate that most will have mesic temperature regime. differences in...

The Amaranthus genotype species are cultivated as „pseudo cereals” because of their high content carbohydrates, proteins and fats, comparable or even superior to cereals themselves. Testing 12 varieties sp. (Tab. 1), for the purpose integration in agricultural technologies Somesan Plateau, has been done on stagnic argic phaeozem, following climatic conditions: annual precipitations value 523 mm average temperature 9.4°C. Statistical processing seed production data shows significant positive...

Accurate soil classification is important for the proper use and management of resources. Different philosophical approaches to can cause difficulty when interpreting morphological descriptions laboratory data. Twenty pedons in Transylvanian Plain, Romania were morphologically described, subjected analyses, classified via both Sistemul Roman De Taxonomie A Solurilor (Romanian System Soil Taxonomy, RSST) U.S. Taxonomy (USST). Differences noted between genetic taxonomic classification. The...
