Abstract: Agriculture is an important sector in South-West Oltenia. In communism agriculture in the region have an important contribution to the GDP. Currently the overall character of the area is subsistence farming (traditional). To reduce the effect of droughts, irrigation systems were built, used during the communist era. Unfortunately, nobody takes care about them and now creates a visual discomfort. People should be educated to support sustainable agriculture, using the technologies and agro-technical systems that preserve and regenerate the land: crop rotation, careful use of fertilizers, agro-forestry, terracing and mixed cultures.
