Abstract
The paper provides an overview of the agricultural economy in terms of agricultural development, especially in the area of plant protection, taking into account the effects of climate change. Environmental protection and sustainable management of natural resources, prioritizing an action behavior regarding vulnerabilities regarding the types of fertilizers used, favors the reorientation of methods applied to plant protection in order to protect the biosphere are part of the soil-plant-air-water equation. Climate change involves the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation of agricultural systems. There also are risks in using excessive fungicides in plant protection. Plant-soil interdependence in agricultural practice is highlighted in the paper. One of the main objectives in the field of agriculture is to maintain a low level of greenhouse gas emissions. Research has a major role to play in reducing the carbon footprint per tonne of food produced from organic farming, compared to conventional farming, mainly due to the abandonment of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. The aim of the following research is to collect data and information on the most efficient management models that will create the premises for the production of production models that will respond in the future to the challenges of climate change, especially from the perspective of reducing greenhouse gases, depending on the application of a plant protection system in response to climate change and the pressure of diseases and pests. During the research, we tried to highlight aspects that, in our opinion, are important for the development of the agricultural sector as part of the economy.
Highlights
The Farm to Fork strategy—for a fair, healthy and environmentally friendly food system adopted by the European Commission at the end of May 2020 tends to position the role of consumption in the virtual spectrum affected by climate change with tendencies to reorient factors in the shift to sustainable consumption in a sustainable agricultural economy [1]
The reform of the common agricultural policy (CAP) continues the prerogatives inserted in 2013 which created mechanisms for ecological direct payments diversifying the consumer market The aim was to further improve the sustainable management of natural resources related to agriculture ecological and ecological agricultural practices, according to Andrei J.V. (2015) [14]
Materials and Methods The data collection from reference year 2011 onwards is based on Regulation (EC) No 1185/2009 concerning statistics on pesticides, which established a common framework for the systematic production of community statistics on the sales and use of pesticides that are plant protection products and data European Commission, Brussels; Directorate General Communication, COMM.A.3
Summary
The Farm to Fork strategy—for a fair, healthy and environmentally friendly food system adopted by the European Commission at the end of May 2020 tends to position the role of consumption in the virtual spectrum affected by climate change with tendencies to reorient factors in the shift to sustainable consumption in a sustainable agricultural economy [1]. Pending the successful achievement of the targets in the strategy, the Commission will initiate a call for action to be taken in accordance with the principles of better regulation, one of which is to propose a revision of the Regulation on pesticide statistics to overcome data gaps and to strengthen the development of evidence-based policies by 2023 This is more than an invitation to the research community empowered to contribute to this investigation through its expertise, an invitation to which we have responded through this paper to provide a small but symbolic scriptum in the glossary of sustainable development researching the patches of reducing peticides in sustainable agriculture. Pesticide statistics are included as part of this paper [2,3]
