In addition to being deficient in terms of the forestry sector, the studied territory presents pedoclimatic conditions less suitable for agricultural crops, because the rainfall is quantitatively reduced and the land is poor quality and prone to deflation. In order to reduce the effects caused by climate change, biodiversity conservation and implicitly the protection of agricultural land, it is intended to establish a forest on an area of 150.76 hectares, with forest species suitable from a pedoclimatic point of view. A complex pedological study was carried out, in different plots, by performing a soil profile and several control surveys, in order to establish the suitability of the land for forestry facilities. The soil type identified is typical arenosols, formed in the Tecuci Plain, due to the deposition of coarse and fine sand. The surface of land is a relatively flat configuration, loamy-sandy texture in the bioaccumulative horizon and sand on the depth of the soil profile, with contrasting distribution. For these pedoclimatic conditions with local specificity, the formula for afforestation with adapted species, with fast growth and low requirements in terms of soil trophicity was established.
