Conclusions
1. The decreasing tendency can be expressed by means of a three- dimensional polynomial equation with R
2
= 0.9594, Figure 3 which shows that selected regression pattern was representative. If the bearing
orchards follow the same regression curve, their area will decrease to about 150 thousand hectares in the year 2004 Figure3.
2. If we compare the average annual rates of the in bearing orchards having in mind the area the total productions and the average
production Table 4, 7, 8, we can see that the areas decreased less - 1.77. We can draw the conclusion that the decrease of the total fruit
production -12.7 was almost entirely due to the decrease of the average productions per hectares with an average annual rate of -
11.4
3. Comparing the average fruit production in Romania to those of UE member countries Table 9 and 9 we can notice that in some countries,
as Belgium, France and Holland, the average fruit production exceeds three times up to nine times the average fruit production in Romania,
while in others, as Spain for example, the average total fruit productions were under 500kgha, in the period 1997-2000.
