R. L. Panzaru, D. M.Medelete

Abstract

The study shows how to distribute tomato products at national level. For this purpose, the weights held by the macro regions and the regions of economic development at national level. The drawing of the paper used the method of comparison in time and space. The analyzed period was 2012-2014. The approach presents the national, macroregional and regional situation of the indicators, establishing the structure indices (cultivated area and total production) according to the formula: Is = (Si, Qi / St, Qt) x 100 (%). For average production, the comparison of macroregional and regional situations with the national level of the indicator is made. Macro region 2 cultivates the largest national tomato area (33.13%), followed by Macro region 4 (28.43%), Macro region 3 (24.58%) and Macro region 1 (13.86%) - With the areas of favoring culture at national level (considering, for example, that the South - West Region component of Macro region 4 includes counties such as Dolj and Olt). Total production is dominated, in structure, by Macro region 2, followed by Macro region 4, Macro region 3 and Macro region 1 (35,20, 27,32, 24,19 and 13,29% respectively), a situation similar to that found for the cultivated area.
