Abstract

The study aims at analyzing the human potential in Tecuci plain, an agricultural space, whose area is almost entirely administrated by Galaţi County. Human resources, and especially those forming labor force are considered the dynamic element directly responsible for the economic development of an area. Thus, their analysis, taking into account the economic evolution in recent years at the national level, provides us a synthetic picture of the entire area, highlighting also the regional disparities. The economic development level, reflected by the analysis of seven demographic indicators aiming the human potential at the last national census, should be the basis for future economic development policies to ensure the region's population a better standard of living.
