The soil water availability is essential for soil organisms activity, for the growth and development of cultivated plants as well as for soil tillage. It can affect the sustainability of agricultural production and the resilience of agro-ecosystems. This paper refers to soil water behavior during autumn-summer cropping cycle within a study conducted between October 2021 and September 2022 in a field experiment set up at Moara Domnească Teaching and Research Station of the USAMV of Bucharest, Romania. The study is part of a research topic aiming to evaluate the sustainability of agricultural production and the resilience of agro-ecosystems under the effects of climate change. The study is carried out on red preluvosoil in Sylvosteppe area of Romanian Plain. In order to achieve the study objectives monthly measurements regarding temperature and precipitation were performed. Starting with March 2022, determinations of soil moisture were made, and its evolution was followed under the effect of the mineral fertilizers, manure compost and of agricultural crops (wheat, maize, soybean and mixtures of perennial grasses).
