The crops are vulnerable to variations in the annual climate, therefore, reducing losses and increasing the agricultural production are necessary, both economically and socially. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the thermic and hydric resources and to indentify the agro-climatic parameters and critical thresholds on the intervals of period September 2006 – August 2007, with direct consequences for the winter wheat crops in the Caracal Plain. In the first decade of the 21st century, the crop year 2006–2007, was characterized, in general, by a higher air temperature than normal, with soil humidity deficit, which determined the depreciation of the vegetation state of the winter wheat crop and consequently, a low production per hectare. By knowing the climatic conditions, for a period of time, it provides the ability of implementing effective measures in order to prevent and combat effects on agricultural production.
