BASIC NATURAL FACTORS INFLUENCING SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE

Abstract

The development of sustainable agriculture in the European Union is one of the most important strategic objectives of the actual and future Common Agriculture Policy. One way to environmentally use water as a non-renewable natural resource in agriculture is to use information and computer systems to determine the necessary irrigation time and quantity norms to obtain optimal actually possible yields of agricultural crops. At the Institute of Soil Science "N. Pushkarov" an Automated system for prognosis and management of irrigation regime was developed. It is based on the two basic natural factors influencing the agriculture, namely the solar radiation and the soil-physical properties of the soil types. The basic models of dependencies that make up the algorithms of the system are presented. The relationship between energy water potential and yield is considered.
