The climate changes in Romania are part of the global context, considering the regional conditions, with an increasing trend of dry summers. The research topic involves an analysis of the evolution of precipitation and periods of drought in recent years in conjunction with their impact on the environment, under the effect of climate change. The increase in temperature, especially during the vegetation period and the large number of years in which evapotranspiration quantitatively exceeds precipitation, indicate the need for effective measures to regulate the water balance. From the distribution of precipitation in the vegetation periods, it was observed that in the warm period of the year the trend of decrease is greater than in the cold period, which implies a water deficit, now when the plants have the maximum water consumption (Smuleac Laura et al., 2020).
