Abstract: This article explores the current state of biodiversity in Romania, with a focus on agricultural biodiversity and the pressures exerted by industrialization, modernization, and globalization. It examines the spatial, structural, and biological dimensions of biodiversity to provide an integrated perspective on ecosystem complexity. Using species observation data from the GBIF platform and national statistics on agricultural land use, a simple regression analysis is conducted to investigate the relationship between agricultural surface area and observed biological diversity. The findings highlight the importance os sustainable policies and choices that can shift the balance toward biodiversity protection in the face of increasing socio-economic and environmental pressures.
