### Favorable and Restrictive Factors for the Alfafla Culture  
An important factor in identifying the best territories for alfalfa cultivation is the analysis of the slope angle (Figure 3A). Thus, we can notice that at the county level, most of the territory presents favorable conditions from this point of view for alfalfa cultures on 4595.2 km\({}^{2}\) which represents 60.9% of the territory of Bihor county. Restrictions in terms of land geodecivity are noted for territories characterized by slope angle classes higher than 45.1%. They are mainly found in the mountainous area of Bihor county, but these are limited only to 3.5% of the studied area. \begin{table}

Table 3: Rating coefficients for the characteristics of cadastral parcels. Figure 3: _Cont._Regarding the average air temperature ranges, we can notice the fact that most of Bihor county, especially the field areas and low hills that do not benefit from a thermal regime of over 8 degrees annually, have favorable conditions for the alfalfa cultivation (Figure 3B). Thus, for these territories, meaning 70.1% of Bihor county, favorable conditions are met for starting the cultivation of alfalfa. Figure 3: Rating of alfalfa depending on the slope angle (**A**), average annual temperature (**B**), average annual precipitation (**C**), pseudogleization (**D**), gleization (**E**), soil texture (**F**), and edaphic volume (**G**) in Bihor County. The thermally restrictive territories are represented by the territories that benefit from temperatures below 5 degrees Celsius, which are also found in the mountainous area of Bihor county. From the point of view of the average amount of annual precipitation, Bihor county falls in the range of 569-1329 mm. The field territories that are characterized by average annual precipitation, situated in the range of 551-600 mm, that received the high value of 0.9 in the modeling process, stand out again (Figure 3C). These characterize 35.8% of the territory of the county. There are high favorable conditions for alfalfa for another 2842.2 km\({}^{2}\). These are territories that are characterized by a quantity of precipitation within the range 601-700 mm. From the pluviometric point of view, as restrictive areas for alfalfa, both the mountainous area and a part of the high hills of Bihor county represent 14.4% of the county territory (1092.0 km\({}^{2}\)). Analyzing the classification by favorability classes for alfalfa in terms of pseudogleization, we can notice as a limiting factor only the territories with an excessive pseudogleization, on 28.4 km\({}^{2}\) and very strong, on 370.4 km\({}^{2}\).
