At the level of the European Union, Spain was the largest peach grower in 2019, with an area of 47.94 thousand ha and a production of 940.50 thousand tons, followed by Italy and Greece. Romania's peach production amounted to 17.19 thousand tons, far behind other states in the eastern part of the EU. Although it had the largest number of peach trees, 296,424, Constanța County was surpassed in terms of production by Bihor County, which obtained in 2019 5,718 tons of peaches. In order to support this sector, the Fruit-Growing Trees Subprogram of the NRDP (PNDR) 2014-2020 made available to fruit growers the non-reimbursable funds for the reconversion and establishment of new fruit plantations. For this purpose, the paper presents some aspects concerning the management of natural and anthropic resources for peach fruit trees, lands and orchards in expert system-CROM. Following the application of the expert System CROM, the peach plots and the orchards at Research and Development Station for Tree Culture -SCDP Băneasa, Bucharest received 138 points and were included into the class with natural and anthropic restrictions. Recommendations for the improvement of the peach orchards have also been established.
