Pure Arabian horse breed is one of the oldest breed found in the world, spread all over the Earth to contribute to creating and improving most of current horse breeds. It is considered a horse with a lively and obedient temperament, with special characters for gallop racing, endurance competitions and also for show events. In Romania, Pure Arabian horse breeding is currently obtaining good results in Mangalia studfarm, opened in 1928. Here we can find valuable individuals from CYGAJ, EL IMAN, GAZAL, HADBAN, IBN GALAL, MERSUCH, NEDJARY and SIGLAVY BAGDADY genetic bloodlines. The paper represents a morphological study, based on 92 adult horses, selected for reproduction at specific ranking activity in 2018 (9 sires, 27 public mount stallions and 56 mares). The study was based on the main 3 body dimensions checked also in current criteria evaluation paper: height(154.77± 0.19 cm), thorax perimeter (182.35±0.58 cm) and cannon girth(18.98±0.06 cm), used for obtaining specific body indexes as dactilo-thorax index (10.41±0.03%), bone index (12.27±0.05%) and massiveness index (117.83±0.37%). The results prove that from this perspective, Pure Arabian breed standard is maintained in Mangalia studfarm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The evolution of the number of arrivals during the period 2008-2017 in Neamţ County shows a fluctuating evolution. The minimum value of 131 thousand tourists was recorded in 2010, with peak values being recorded towards the end of the period, 224 thousand tourists in 2016 and 239 thousand tourists respectively in 2017. The absolute and relative changes of arrivals during 2008-2017, from Neamţ County indicates an average level of arrivals (𝑦) of 170.1 thousand; the absolute mean change of arrivals (Δ) recorded 8.77 thou sand; the average arrival dynamics index (𝐼̅) was 1,045 or 104,5%; the average pace of arrivals dynamics (𝑅) was 4.5%. The evolution of the number of overnight stays was roughly similar to the evolution of the number of arrivals during 2008-2017. The minimum overnight stays were recorded in 2011 by 274 thousand tourists. In 2016 and 2017, the highest values were registered. The absolute and relative changes of the overnight stays in the period 2008-2017 in Neamţ County indicate an average overnight stay (𝑦) of 333 thousand tourists-days; the mean change of overnight stays (Δ) recorded 9.77 thousand tourists-days; the average overnight dynamics index (𝐼)̅ was 1,025 or 102,5% and the average overnight dynamics (𝑅) was 2.5%. The evolution of the accommodation capacity in operation in Neamţ County during the analyzed period (2008-2017) shows an increase of 47% registered in 2017 compared to the reference year (2008). The average level of accommodation capacity (𝑦) was 1702.6 thousand seats/year; the average change in accommodation capacity in operation (Δ) recorded 71.77 thousand days/year; the average dynamic of accommodation capacity in operation (𝐼̅) was 1.044 or 104.4%; the average pace of accommodation capacity in operation (𝑅) was 4.4%. In the tourist accommodation structures in Neamţ County, the net use index of the tourist accommodation capacity in operation had an average level of 19.60% during the analyzed period (2008-2017), the highest level being registered in 2008 (25.09%).

During the growth of silkworm larvae study, also was done a research which aimed to determine the chemical composition of mulberry leaves from a Romanian Selected Hybrid. The results showed that advancing in the vegetation stage at the same time with different periods of the silkworm larvae's growth, the mulberry leaves experience an aging process being noticed through its quality decreasing from chemical composition point of view. So, for example, the CP which was in average 20.78±0.627% (from DM), decreased during the study with 2.87%; while the CF had an average of 18.10±0.271%, (from DM) increased with 1.47%.

The aim of this study was to investigate the tourist flow in Bacău County's touristy and agrotouristy boarding houses using commons tourist flow indicators, such as: mean number of tourists (Nt), mean duration of sojourn (Ls), and touristy flow density (Td) depending on the types of tourists. Our research was carried on considering the registered data between 2012 and 2016. The investigated tourist flow indicators shown the following results: mean number of Romanian tourists in touristy boarding houses was higher than in agro-touristy boarding houses (64.96 and 17.82); in the same time, mean number of foreign tourists in touristy boarding houses was higher than in agrotouristy boarding houses (3.54 and 0.87). Mean duration of sojourn (Ls) for Romanian tourist in touristy boarding houses was lower than in agro-touristy boarding houses (1.68 and 1.58 days). Mean duration of sojourn (Ls) for foreign tourist followed the same trend as for Romanian tourist, being lower in touristy boarding houses than in agro-touristy boarding houses (2.61 and 3.05 days, respectively). Touristy flow density (D) was lower in touristy boarding houses than in agro-touristy boarding houses (0.175 and 0.088 tourists). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is a study on 109 horses from Shagya breed which were selected for breeding to Rădăuţi stud farm. In this study were determined three main body dimensions which are written also in the body evaluation sheet: withers height (158.41±0.22 cm), heart girth (175.42±0.43 cm) and canon perimeter (18±0.09 cm). The obtained data for these body dimensions as well as those obtained for some body indexes such as, massiveness index (110.75 ±0.25%), bones index (11.36±0.05%) and dactyl-thoracic index (11.36±0.05%) falls within the breed standards.

"Cal de Bucovina" population is the result of crossbreeding between "Semigreul Românesc" and Hutsul breeds made in the 80's, at Lucina Stud. Although it has some rather interesting characters, unfortunately, they have been little studied and used so that, at present, the population is extremely low, surviving as a nucleus in conservation through the skilled care of the specialists of the Stud. The biological material used in this study was represented precisely by mares that make up the nucleus breeding, breeding activity analysis revealing that the specific indicators as the introduction to breeding age (1817.429 ± 161.861 days), age at first calving (2170 ± 164.567 days), period of gestation (339.7 ± 2.0 days), service period (97.8 ± 25.6 days), calving interval (465.4 ± 36.8 days), etc., have normal values within the species characteristics, which gives us hope in terms of future survival of this population.

The structure of tourism movement in Vrancea County during 2011-2015, indicate a low rate of foreigner tourists (5.70%) from the total entrances in the county, number of days/tourist for foreigner tourists have also a low rate (6.41%), and evolution of tourists, foreigners and Romanians, had fluctuations during analysed period The mean level of tourists recorded 39.7338 thousands persons. The mean level of number days/tourist recorded a value of 64.6384 thousands persons. Average duration of the sojourn had also fluctuations during analysed period (2011-2015) being of 1.84 days for Romanian tourists and of 1.61 days for the foreigner ones. Gross utilization rate of touristy accommodation capacity recorded fluctuant values in those 5 analysed years (2011-2015), in 2015 being recorded the highest value 17.54%. From the analysis of touristy movement could be observed an oscillator evolution of dynamic rate for tourists' number, even if per total mean dynamic rate show an increase, in average, with 3.96. Absolute average modification of tourists' number recorded 0.41 thousands persons. Average dynamic rhythm for tourists' number was 296.00%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Research was carried out on the herd of 39 horses, respectively 28 mother mares and 11 stallions, which constituted the reproduction nucleus of Romanian Trăpaş breed, from Jegălia Stud, in 2013. Horses were assessed based on data obtained from usual measurements (waist, thoracic perimeter and shinbone perimeter) performed at the annual evaluation. Results obtained regarding waist showed that it had average values of 154.68±0.59 cm at mares, respectively 157.36±1.17 cm at stallions. Thoracic perimeter had an average value of 173.82±1.01 cm at mares, respectively 185.18±3.58 cm at stallions, and shinbone perimeter had mean values of 18.80±0.15 cm at mares and 21.09±0.59 cm for stallions. In light of these results it has been observed that the studied herd is presenting as a homogenous batch concerning the three studied characters. The obtained data gathered after measurements fits into breed standard and justify horses promoting/maintenance into stud breeding nucleus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
